    Worked smoothly for me. Leaving to the UK tomorrow and will switch everything over once I land. To everyone saying this is complicated...just follow the video step by step or read the multiple supporting documents. Not difficult.

    Let me know if my understanding is correct - I install the eSIM prior to my travel (as I need WiFi for that) but I do not activate the eSIM until I am actually at my destination. Is that right? Does the activation of eSIM require WIFI connection?

  • @valerieEswenson

    This isn’t complicated. I did this last year for the first time and it worked perfectly. I just walked my MOTHER through how to do it on her phone and this is her very first phone that is eSIM capable. She tried previously on another trip and I didn’t realize how simple her phone was. If she gets it, I’m sure others can. Just watched this as a refresher…

    Watched a few Airalo setup videos and my iphone 14 pro never reacted in the way described. There was no setup steps but the green banner shows successfully installed. When I go to my cellular in settings, it does not show a "secondary" sim just my primary one. How do i activate when I cannot see it in settings? Thx

    I successfully installed my eSIM but the pop up window that followed asking about cellular plan labels I accidentally clicked away and couldn’t find these options again. But you’re already doing more or less the same thing in the settings app as shown later in the tutorial anyways so is it a big deal?
    I also wonder if I should toggle data roaming on my primary line off?

  • @paulperkins7875

    Hello, I just want to be clear. How much of the installation and activation of an eSim can be done ahead of time while at home before I leave? I was hoping that most of it could be done before I leave home leaving me to just switch over to the eSim when I arrive at my destination when I would expect the validity period to start. However I am now questioning that since I have been unable to activate the eSim on my iPhone after trying several times.

    • @airalocom
      @airalocom  3 месяца назад +4

      Hi @paulperkins7875, thanks for your comment. Please note that most Airalo eSIM packages activate when the eSIM connects to an allowed network at the destination. This means that you must be located in the destination country to be able to connect to a network. Please don't try to activate your eSIM if you're still at home because you won't be able to connect to the local network. When your eSIM connects to the local network, its validity starts. If you require further assistance, please contact us via DM or our app or email us at support@airalo.com. Have a great day!

    Question: I get this for the data, but what happens if you call or get called while using the eSIM? does your carrier charge you "roaming charges" What happens with texts from non-iphone users (send or receive)? How do you turn on or off the "phone portion" so you don't incur roaming charges?? And does your location get activated for emergency services?

    • @airalocom
      @airalocom  2 месяца назад +2

      Hi there!
      Thank you for your comment! Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we are committed to assisting you. 🧡
      If your eSIM is for data only, it will not allow you to make or receive calls and texts. To avoid roaming fees from your main carrier, we recommend disabling your primary line during your trip and using only your eSIM.
      If you still need to make or receive calls and texts while using your eSIM for data, please be aware of potential roaming charges.
      For iOS devices, you can disable your primary line by following these steps:
      - Go to Settings.
      - Select Mobile Data or Cellular Data.
      - Tap on your main plan.
      - Disable this line.
      After disabling your physical SIM, it will no longer receive network signals.
      To ensure your location services work properly, make sure your device’s location settings are turned on and that you have a reliable network connection, which you can have with our eSIMs.
      If you have any questions or need further assistance, please reach out to our support team via chat or WhatsApp on our app or website. We’re here to help and make everything as clear as possible for you!

      If your eSIM is for data only, you can use it for data-based calling and messaging through apps like WhatsApp, Telegram, and Instagram. However, if your eSIM does not come with a phone number, you won’t be able to make traditional SMS or voice calls.
      You can still use your physical SIM card for voice and text services while using the eSIM for data and data-based calls and messaging. Just be cautious, as using your primary line abroad may incur roaming fees.

      @@LongNguyen-kz6dv Hi! You don’t need to disable your eSIM when using Wi-Fi at the hotel or airport. The eSIM will remain in standby mode, and you can switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data seamlessly.
      However, if your Wi-Fi connection is weak, your device might automatically switch to the eSIM mobile data to maintain better coverage. To avoid this, you can manually turn off mobile data in your phone’s settings while connected to Wi-Fi, ensuring no eSIM data is used in the background.

      Hi Alice!
      Thank you for your question!
      Once your eSIM is installed, you can manage which line to use for data in your device settings. You can keep your normal SIM active for data until you’re ready to switch to the eSIM. Just make sure to turn on the eSIM line and data it for data when you’re ready.
      This way, you can ensure that your normal SIM continues to work until you're set up with the eSIM on the day of travel.
      If you have any other questions or need assistance, feel free to reach out via chat or WhatsApp in the Airalo app and website, or email us at support@airalo.com.

      It’s possible that one of the "Business options" on your settings might refer to your eSIM. To check:
      - Enable each line you have available in "Cellular."
      - Go to Settings -> About -> Scroll down to see if the ICCID matches the ICCID of the eSIM shown in the app.
      If you can’t find the eSIM in your Cellular settings, it might not be installed yet. It could be listed under a generic label like "Business" or "Secondary."

      Hi @goodywright7101 thank you for your comment.

If you need further assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us via DM, our APP, or send us an email at support@airalo.com. Have a great day ahead!

    It doesn't work this way if you are in the USA and bought eSim for Europe. Your eSim can't be activated because providers are too far away. Airalo has to consider this case in the clip!

      Hi there! We're so sorry to hear that you had trouble activating your eSIM. We know how frustrating that can be! The installation instructions are for devices running iOS 17, and you can install your eSIM in the USA, but activation happens in Europe.
      We really want to understand what happened and help you resolve this. Could you please contact us via chat on our app or website? You can even select the WhatsApp option there. We are committed to turning around your experience.

      Hi @OfekIsUnBreakable, thanks for your comment. You would have to turn your Primary Line OFF and select the eSIM for Cellular Data.

We look forward to hearing from you.

    Do I need to remove my normal SIMM card (physical card) when I activate the esimm - can I still receive messages that are sent to my normal SIMM card (physical) whilst I’m using your esimm .? Thanks

    • @airalocom

      Hi @Gazzapa57, thanks for your comment. You must manually turn your primary SIM OFF to activate your eSIM. You can use your Primary SIM to receive calls or messages, but this might incur roaming charges from your provider. If you require further assistance with the settings, you can send us an email at support@airalo.com. You can also connect with us through chat using your Airalo app and/or our website. We look forward to hearing from you.

    Travelling to USA next week. Tried to install - I think successfully - BUT it automatically goes to activate and now says SIM cannot be activated - please contact Webbing. Still in the UK. Have I completely wasted the eSIM or will it still connect once I arrive in the USA?
    I think it's not clear in your guidance on the website that there's an installation process which can be done in the UK, but the activation process cannot be done until you arrive in your destination country.

    • @airalocom
      @airalocom  Месяц назад

      Hi there! Most Airalo eSIM packages become activated, meaning you get access to data, when the eSIM installed on your device connects to an allowed network at the destination.
      So, you need to be physically present in the country of your data package to connect to a network and activate your eSIM. If you're still at home, please wait until you reach your destination to activate your eSIM, as you won't be able to connect to the local network from home.
      Once your eSIM connects to the local network, that's when the validity of the USA eSIM begins.
      To ensure your eSIM was successfully installed, go to Settings > Cellular and check the installed cellular plans. If you need any help checking these settings, please contact us via chat on the app or through airalo.com.

      Hi @ChainsawzTheInsane thank you for your comment. Most Airalo eSIM packages activate (you have access to data) when the eSIM installed on your device connects to an allowed network at the destination. This means that you must be located in your data package's country to be able to connect to a network. Therefore, if you're still at home, please don't try to activate your eSIM because you won't be able to connect to the local network. If you need further assistance, please feel free to contact us via DM, our app, or send us an email at support@airalo.com. We would be happy to help you. Have a great day ahead!
