How can one order an evaluation eSIM?

Roke · ‎28-09-2025

I want to be able to evaluate the network, but need to be able to evaluate multiple at the same time, so need an eSIM (I have four to evaluate, but solely two physical slots, so I need eSIMs). I have read some of https://ee.co.uk/help/mobile/getting-started/esim/what-is-an-esim#article-heading-1, but I don't see related information.

There's no such thing as an evaluation eSIM with EE. I presume you want to evaluate the network with a PAYG SIM for a short while. However EE PAYG SIMs don't come as eSIMs. You'll just have to evaluate it with a physical PAYG SIM.

@XRaySpeX, indeed, a free PAYG was what I last utilised. A shame that I am forced to contribute to the world's waste and transport emissions each time I want to test the network.
