USA visit - using 48 SIM & local eSIM in iPhone 14?

irishkiwi — Sat, 28 Dec 2024 15:54:27 GMT

I’m travelling to the USA in January with an iPhone 14. I know 48 doesn’t support eSIM technology yet…however, can I use my iPhone 14 with a USA eSIM (like one from Holafly) and still keep the 48 sim active in my phone at the same time?
Many thanks for any help, advice and feedback.

A non US iPhone 14 supports dual SIMs so your 48 physical SIM and a local US eSIM should work at the same time.

To use 48 services while roaming in the USA you'll need an active membership plan and also cash credit on your account to pay for the relevant services.

Note that you won't be able to make calls on your 48 SIM/number in the USA.

If you need to contact 48 support about this then see the links in my signature below.
