Esim AND Physical Sim
There are now talks sbout smartphone band in schools, and i was wondering if i could use my smarty esim on my smartphone and my physical sim on a flip phone?
IsaacFirth You can SWAP your physical sim for an Esim; you can add a separate esim to a modern smartphone that has a physical sim in it (extra line or esim for non EU data). You cannot use the esim in one and the physical in another as far as I am aware from Smarty information:

So i can have 2 phones with a smarty esim on each one? And would this work for 2 physical sims?
IsaacFirth You can certainly have an esim in each phone - but it would need to be a separate account for each. You can start a second sim as a 'Nickname' sim which is under the control of your main account - but you would get discount as they are both in your own Group.
Likewise, you could have a sim in each phone - with a separate account for each - same as above.
You cannot use any sim, physical or esim in more than one phone at the same time. Hope that makes sense!
