I have an iPhone 11 which is currently on giffgaff and so it is unlocked. I am wanting a second number and it seems the only way will be to get an esim.
What I am trying to figure out though is how to do this.
I don't want to transfer my existing number to EE as I want to keep that with giffgaff.
I want a second number on an esim which means I can use it for work.
That way I am able to have two lines in one handset.
Do I just pick up a SIM card in the shop and scan the code off that or is there some magical method I cannot find out!
To have an eSIM with EE you need to take out a SIM-Only contract with EE. The SIMs you find in shops are probably not that but PAYG.

To phone EE CS: Dial Freephone +44 800 079 8586 - Option 1 for Mobile Phone & Mobile Broadband or Option 2 for Home Broadband & Home Phone

@autisticaimee This has to be a contract sim to use the eSim. You’ll get a sim then you need to request a QR pack this will transfer the sim information on to the eSim and this can be done all in store.
To contact EE Customer Services dial 150 From your EE mobile or 0800 956 6000 from any other phone.
Thanks - that is frustrating as I don't want to spend £13 a month for a second sim as I would need it PAYG.
I'll look into other options for an esim then (I found some online that focus on people going on holidays so need the option for a second sim and they are PAYG)
