You can have 2 SIM’s active at the same time. For example I have my ID SIM as my primary line P and a backup BNE SIM T incase I’m in an area that has no iD coverage. I can swap between the two as needed.

Cause you have 2 SIM cards in the phone. You need to remove or delete the eSIM for your previous network.
