mo sim card required anymore ?

Many phones now support one or more esims.

That's such a relief. Way more convenient than having to change a physical SIM card all the time 🙏

Thank you for your information.

They should be offered free to existing users as well.

Allright i love the concept

Wow I just activated a new plan. Good timing

So is there any cost to transfer to the new esim from a physical sim, and when will this be available?

As the heading says, unfortunately it is free only for new activations.

Woah, I paid many times for mine even when the physical one was not working.

It's unclear whether this would be free or not, do you have a source ? I'm trying to find out

great news

Big fan of this. I’ve had no issue with my eSim.

This is great. Thank you

Is it similar to Airalo?

Worked for me as a new Fizz member, thank you.

what is the main difference between esim and sim

I mentioned this earlier in this thread, you could have just found it by scrolling up.

• If you switch between multiple sims on the same phone often, eSim is the way to go.
• If you move the same line & plan between different phones often, stick with a physical sim.
• If you use dual-sim on the same phone constantly, your choice of esim vs. physical maybe limited by what your phone can do and what type of sim is available from the "other" carrier. Some Android phones can't do dual eSim for example, only one eSim + one physical. So, the best choice depends on your individual use case there.

If you don't do any of these things and use a single sim on the same phone over long periods of time, it doesn't really matter too much. The physical sim is easier to handle once active, on the other hand, an eSim offers instant activation without spending the time to go to a store or wait the extra few days for a physical sim to be shipped to you.
