I currently have an active esim on my iPhone XR, tomorrow my new iPhone 11 will arrive. When I transfer my XR data to the iPhone 11 will the esim settings transfer also or do I need a new esim pack. (I don’t have the qr code from the original esim pack)

Thanks

@JBycroft 

You'll need customer service to do the transfer Guide: Coronavirus Community Help and Support 

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.

Currently using:
Pixel 7a (O2 & Lyca), One Plus 6 (Sfr), iPhone 12 Pro Max (Vodafone)

I’ve spoken to customer services who weren’t very helpful. They have sent me a new esim pack in the post. Can they not do the transfer over the phone ?

Thanks

You would like to think so but nothing ever easy with O2.

Recieved the esim pack today and added it to my new iPhone but my phone number isn’t showing as linked to the esim.

I think I need my original physical sim (which I no longer have) to perform a sim swap.

I will ring again in the morning, what a joke this is. Had no phone since Monday now.
