Multiple e sims

[heatherb21]

Hello is it possible to change the e sim in your phone to another provider temporarily?

travelling abroad and EE roaming charges are way to high! So want to temporarily get a different sim from another provider to use and then switch back to ee on my return.

Depending on the phone you have you can add an e-SIM alongside your existing EE SIM, and just turn the EE SIM off.

@heatherb21  You can not change your number to a different provider as this will terminate the contract and you’ll be required to pay it off.

Your EE SIM is an EE SIM and can't be changed into anything else.

Dual-SIM phones can carry 2 SIMs - sometimes this is one pSIM and one eSIM, sometimes it's 2 pSIM. Some phones can carry either a micro-SD or second pSIM in the spare slot.
