They say people will be able to get a booster shot 6 or 8 months after their 
second shot which in your case means at the very earliest you might be able to 
get it the second or third week of January. If it is done by appointment only 
and if the roll-out to the general public starts in January then I assume those 
who were vaccinated in May and June will get a notification first, really 
impossible to say.

Sorry, regarding the booster shot I don't know, my understanding is that once 
the first wave of it is done (older people, health care workers etc.) the 
general public will be offered a booster shot starting in January and it will 
be strictly by invitation. This means you will get a text message or email when 
it's your turn since you would have provided either your phone number or email 
address when you registered earlier this year for the first and second shot. I 
can't remember when you had your second shot, but whether you are already being 
offered a booster or not depends a lot on that. My wife and I had our second 
shot on June 11 and they say booster shots will be offered after at least 6 
months so for us that would be mid December and I hope that we will also get 
our invite to book an appointment some time in January or early February. We 
are planning to go to the Philippines at the very end of February or early 
March and hopefully we'll get it before then. I would, however, want to have it 
at least a week or 10 days before I go on a major trip like yours or ours just 
in case you do experience a bit of a reaction; I certainly would not book it 
for a day or two before you are about to go on a long flight.

Hi Fazil,

What is the newest phone you have? E-SIM was first supported on the iPhone XS 
and XR which were released in the fall of 2018.
I you have a compatible phone like the above or an 11, 12 or now 13-series 
phone (or SE2020) it would be best if you switch to e-SIM with your provider 
here in Canada. As long as you are with Telus, Rogers or Bell that is no 
problem, but as far as I know the MVNO's like Koodo, Virgin, Fido etc. don't 
support e-SIM.
I just switched back to Telus from Koodo and while they first sent me a SIM 
card, I was told that once my number had been ported over from Koodo and 
everything was set up I could get a QR code shipped to me and make the switch 
to e-SIM. Once that is done you can then remove the physical SIM from the tray 
and throw it away and your SIM tray will now be available for a SIM card when 
you travel whether it is your upcoming trip to Saudi Arabia or whether you are 
going back home to Pakistan.
You can even set up a special ringtone for the physical SIM so you know right 
away when the phone rings whether it's your main number or not although I am 
not entirely sure how it works if you assign a custom ringtone to a particular 
contact whether that contact if they called the local number from whatever 
country you are in would have the ringtone you set up for that SIM or whether 
the ringtone you assigned to the contact would have priority.

When is your trip, I hope the new COVID-19 variant won't disrupt your plans.

Hi Fazil,

According to the below iPhone in Canada article from 2 years ago Freedom Mobile 
does support e-SIM:

Freedom Mobile Launches eSIM Support for iPhone XS, XS Max, XR
Shaw’s Freedom Mobile has launched eSIM support for iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max 
and iPhone XR users.
According to an updated Apple support document, Freedom Mobile is now listed 
under “wireless carriers that offer eSIM service” in Canada, joining Bell, 
Fido, Lucky Mobile, Rogers and Virgin. Telus does not support eSIM yet.
On Freedom Mobile’s website, searching for “Where can I get an eSIM” reveals a 
support document detailing eSIM:

You can purchase a compatible phone and activate service on eSIM at any Freedom 
Mobile Store. If you have an eSIM-compatible phone, you can also swap your 
regular SIM card to eSIM by visiting one of Freedom Mobile’s retail locations 
specializing in Warranty and Repair*.
*Please note, the Freedom Mobile Cornwall Warranty & Repair location is 
excluded.

Freedom says QR codes to setup eSIM are valid for one phone only and cannot be 
reused.

"An eSIM is a digital SIM that allows you to activate a cellular plan from your 
carrier without having to use a physical nano-SIM" explains Apple. The addition 
of eSIM means you can have two lines with one iPhone as well.
According to iPhone in Canada reader Kris, “Yesterday, when my friend activated 
service in store the option was eSIM or regular SIM."

Update June 6: A Freedom Mobile spokesperson reached out with more details 
regarding this eSIM launch.
The company says, “We have begun soft-launching eSIM today for customers in a 
limited capacity to allow us the opportunity to test the technology in a 
real-world setting.”
To use eSIM on Freedom Mobile, customers need to have a compatible smartphone 
with the latest software updates or an unlocked device to use their phone with 
multiple carriers.
Currently, Apple iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, iPhone XR and Google Pixel 3a 
smartphones are supported for eSIM on Freedom Mobile.
Customers can activate a service on eSIM, or switch an existing physical SIM to 
eSIM at Freedom Mobile locations specializing in Warranty & Repair support, 
explains the spokesperson.
For new eSIM activations with a compatible handset purchased, they can be 
activated at all retail store locations. For BYOD eSIM activation and SIM 
swaps, customers need to visit Freedom Mobile Warranty & Repair locations.
”eSIM technology will be expanded to allow for activations at more Freedom 
Mobile retail locations as well as online activation for new and existing 
customers in the coming months,” explained Freedom Mobile.

RE: E-SIM?

2021-11-28 Thread Richard Turner 
I have no idea what their requirements will be.

If you are buying a local physical SIM, then they may want to insert the SIM, 
but if you are buying a local ESim, then that can be done electronically so I 
doubt they would need your phone for anything; but I have not done 
international travel since 1997, before all this electronic stuff was popular.

Thanks much, Richard.
Actually, my question is not of a technical nature.
As you know of my intended trip to Saudi Arab where I have to purchase a local 
SIM.
My question, simply, is that do I have to hand my phone physically to the 
person who would take my fingerprints, enter my visa information and complete 
the rest of the process, or it would be all through his computer without me 
handing the phone to him?
Thanks!

RE: E-SIM?

2021-11-28 Thread Christopher Chaltain 
I got an e-sim in my iPhone 11 when I got it about two years ago, and I haven't 
had any problems with it, including during the winter storm here in Texas where 
I lost internet connection and our trips to the mountains of North Carolina 
where I'd be without wi-fi or cellular connection. Based on what I know, once 
they're set up, they won't work any differently from a physical sim card. I'm 
guessing a web search could answer a lot of these questions. Here's one good 
source I found How an eSIM Works: Everything You Need to Know - Airalo 
Blog<https://www.airalo.com/blog/how-esim-works>

Re: E-SIM?

2021-11-27 Thread Cris Ali 
yYes, they can be from two different providers, and from two different 
countries. You do not need to give your phone to anyone to activate an 
e-sim. My provider is AT&T. I called them and asked them to send me an 
esim in the mail. When I received it, I scanned the code and I called 
the customers service and they asked me some questions related to my 
IMEI of my phone and few other pieces of information you can find under 
settings general and about. Within few minutes my esim was active and I 
threw away the AT&T physical sim card. From that moment, my physical sim 
tray was empty. Any time I travel to any country, I insert a physical 
sim card of a local number into the sim card tray of my phone, and 
restart the phone.That is simply how it works.


Cheers,

y

Hi, Group.

My question is about E-SIM and I am talking about E-SIM compatible 
phone only. Can an E-SIM and the physical SIM be from two different 
providers? Can they both be from two different countries?


In order to have E-SIM, do I have to hand my phone to the person 
processing my SIM application?


Thanks!
