Restoring physical SIM

Hello,
I'd lost my phone and so blocked it, then set up a different phone with an eSIM. Today, someone found my phone and I want to go back to using it. I took it off the block list, but am wondering if there is something else I need to do to go back to using it with the physical SIM. Do I need to delete the eSIM from the secondary phone or re-register the old SIM, or will it start working again once the phone is off the block list?

Thanks!

    hi, Yes — if you simply removed your phone from the blocklist (IMEI), your physical SIM should work again as soon as you put it back in the device.

    IMEI blocking prevents the device from accessing the network. Once removed from the blacklist, the device becomes usable normally again.

    Since you set it up as an eSIM, you will need to go to your account to transfer it back to a SIM and delete your eSIM.
