This is a discussion forum where Smarty customers can help out other Smarty customers with advice.
You'll need to chat to Smarty support to arrange for a replacement SIM to be sent out (to your home address.. they won't be sending it to Egypt).

RovingRaspberry Michael_1595831 This is an interesting point. A Google search suggests that you do not need the sim in the phone in order to use WhatsApp. The app will already be on the phone and the user will already be signed into the account. and the rest will work over the mobile data from the Esim.
When I used an Esim, I had the physical sim turned off; from that I would assume that the phone could no longer 'see' it, exactly the same as if it had been lost.
