I’m going to Thailand soon and am going to use a SIM card when there. I currently use an eSIM, does anyone know how I can switch it over on a temporary basis? Thanks 🙂

Hi ​@Meem 

When abroad and you have a local physical sim in the handset you will then be able to switch between the esim and physical sim in the handset settings under Mobile services.

    Thank you for your reply. Will it show up as an option once it is in my phone? Sorry for sounding like a divvy but I don’t want to end up stuck without my phone!!
