I needed a second sim for a trip, and since Samsung decided to only include eSIM as the second sim option in my Flip4 I set out on an adventure trying to find an option.
After reading a few threads elsewhere, I decided to give the Vodafone eSIM loophole a try. It seems to be hit or miss, with some saying it's worked, and others saying the loophole has been closed.
I wouldn't recommend anyone try it, especially with their main sim, unless they don't mind burning the £10 for a VOXI plan if things to tits up!
I ordered a free Vodafone sim, when it arrived this morning I put it in the phone to activate it and set it up.
After a few hours I was finally able to do the eSIM swap. At first it wasn't letting me do it, it said that I had already done a sim swap, but I'm guessing that was just because I'd only just activated the sim. It's a faff to get to the sim swap page, but this is the direct link.
I then went to VOXI, and just signed up, I said I already had a Vodafone number, entered the number and got the OTP through. Then paid for the plan.
I lost signal for a bit, but then it came back.
I've also read online that some people have had their eSIM deactivate after a while, so I'm wondering if that will happen to me.
I'll keep everyone updated on how things go!
