esim discussion

Which means the rest of Singtel and its MVNO should all be starting soon.

Not necessarily. Gomo is supposed to be for the younger people who already know how to use eSIM and don't need so much troubleshooting

Thus, my usage of should. Ideally all should start moving on to provide additional eSIM offering for those that seeks the convenience.
And for "older" users, the traditional methods should still be available too.

anyone has any issues with imessage activation? i ported over to myrepublic esim and it couldn’t activate until their technical support helped me to do a replacement eSIM and it worked, however after turning off and on the esim just for the first time, ‘My Number’ disappears again and I cannot activate iMessage and Facetime again.
Anyone have any solutions? Searched online did network reset did reinstallation of esim (not replacement) and it didn’t work

can’t be i have to do a esim replacement every time i turn the line on and off right

iPhone SE 2020. You can get a second hand at $120-150 on Carousell.

GOMO added support for eSIM on 18 Mar.

amazing! They don’t charge you for eSIM swaps so you can move to different phone as many times as you want without paying a fee. This is the way!

Did you try to turn off your iMessage and FaceTime and then turn it back on to see if that helps?

if not, wait 24 hours after enabling eSIM and ported over and then try activating again.

That was how I solved mine when I had MR a couple of years back.

Hopefully it's like GOMO. No activation fee for swapping phone.
