Hi,

 

For the past few days I’ve been getting a message to set up my Metro eSIM by T-Mobile. I live in the UK, have an iPhone, and only have an O2 account so worried something fraudulent occurring. I have no idea how to block it.

It might be worth trying to reach out to T-Mobile via this link here https://www.metrobyt-mobile.com/contact-us?INTNAV=tNav%3AContactandsupport%3AHelpandsupport

 

There seems to be live chat..

 

As it could be someone has entered an incorrect number for the esim to be sent to..

This is not customer services and we dont have access to your account
I do not work for o2 or any VMo2 /Telefonica/Liberty Global Company

Thanks, unfortunately this isn’t coming vial a message from a sender. It is a pop up notification on my phone saying my new eSIM from metro by t-mobile is ready for activation. I haven’t activated, but concerned it’s trying to install

@CP1011 Have you inadvertently downloaded or installed an app that is sending you this message? Can you run a malware scan?

You can check with Apple to see if they can assist you: Contact – Official Apple Support (UK)

Live chat didn’t work, but calling them eventually did, you were right, they were trying to use my IMEI number. Thanks
