Question

Cant change the number on iphone

My PAC port from Three completed yesterday. Calls and SMS are using my ported number correctly, but the eSIM still contains the temporary iD Mobile number. In Settings > General > About, the phone number is the temporary number, and iMessage is registering that number. Can you reissue or reprovision my eSIM so it contains my ported number?

    Hi ​@Emma137 

    If you have tried to update the number and this does not update, please do a network reset on the handset to fix this.

    Thanks,
    Hosai
