Hi ​@Hammersfan69,

 

We're sorry to hear you're still having trouble after losing your phone.

 

As you've already downloaded the replacement eSIM, we'd first recommend performing a network reset on your phone and then restarting it.

 

If that doesn't resolve the issue, and you still haven't received the activation text or your service isn't working, please contact our Customer Service team via Live Chat. They can check the status of the eSIM and, if necessary, issue you with a new eSIM QR code.

 

We hope this gets you back up and running as soon as possible.

 

Regards,
