Can I delete the eSIM and install it again?
Don’t delete the eSIM before the plan ends: the code works only once and reinstalling is usually not possible.
Don’t delete the eSIM while the plan is running. The QR code and the activation code work once: a profile you delete from the phone usually can’t be downloaded again, and the plan is lost.
If you want to switch the eSIM off for a while, for example until the day you leave, turn the line off in the settings instead of deleting it. Once the plan has ended you can delete the profile; it is of no further use.

- I have nothing to scan the QR code with. What do I do?Paste the activation code: tap “Copy code” in your account, and in the phone’s settings choose to add the eSIM manually.
