Hah. To swap eSIM on O2 in the UK, you have to order a physical pack that gets posted to you with the QR code in. There is no way to get the code to appear on a screen you can scan with your camera, or in an app on the phone you can transfer to the phone's eSIM manager. It's so dumb.

    That's so dumb. When I moved over to Google Fi, I put the sim in, the phone ported the number, then I chucked the sim into the fucking trash. Whenever I get a new phone, I just need to sign in on wifi and Google does the rest.

    Granted -- I only use phones designed to work on Fi [Nexus/Pixels], but I prefer vanilla Android.

    Also I have a data only sim if I need it for anything. Right now I'm waiting on my Clockwork Pi to finally ship.
