Apple Watch e-sim
Still no answer from Smarty? That seems a little rude to just ignore a question. I'd like to know the answer also, as it will affect which watch I buy in the next week or so. Thanks in advance.
Ok, thank you, I'll look out for an announcement if it becomes a viable option. 🙂
Little likelihood of Three UK and SMARTY Mobile offering an eSIM option anytime soon DanielHi_120845.
To use an eSIM, the mobile network operator needs to allow remote provisioning, which means investing more in their network infrastructure and IT systems.
Given Three UK, and other UK operators, are investing billions in 3G switch-off, 4G enhancement, and 5G deployment, my guess is that eSIM support isn't on the radar.
Three already do. I've had it for about 6 months.
This is a forum that admittedly does have some employees as members/moderators etc but it is probably not the best place for answers to questions of strategy.
I would suggest taking up those issues with the Support Team via email or web chat and then they may be passed up the "food chain" to the decision makers.
I emailed the support team about this but all they could offer was it was u see negotiation but couldn’t give me a time scale at all!
SarahCa_1432899 I am not surprised at that response. It is consistent with what they have been saying for at least a year.
