eSIM adoption in the the UK is still mediocre in 2023.  Quite a disgrace.  Three has had a long history of not offering eSIMs.   When anybody asks me for a carrier that can I have to say:  I'd like to recommend SMARTY but this far nothing, and Three, well it's complicated.   

SMARTY has a pretty compelling package, it's really a tragedy that they don't see the value in eSIM.

When you visit a country that /gets it/ you realise that eSIMs are just the way to go,  SIMS can be delivered electronically,  no messy paperwork and sluggard delivery times,  no physical SIM to cut or chop or lose, or get stuck in a SIM slot.

What are we all waiting for UK Telecoms.

SMARTY should volunteer to be part of the solution not the problem.

shame shame shame

THIS. Smarty offers an overall excellent service. CS is good, coverage and speeds are fine, yet it's let down by not offering eSIM. Fix this, and hopefully if Voda keeps the Smarty brand (there's a good chance it's all closed down upon merger, unfortunately) they can continue to have good success.
