Use carrier activation to set up your eSIM&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;ve requested an <strong>eSIM with your new device on a Telstra Upfront plan,<\/strong> you only have to set it up and connect to WiFi. Then, follow the on-screen instructions and enter the 6-digit confirmation to download your eSIM.

You might automatically be taken to the activation process. If this happens, follow the on-screen instructions to activate your eSIM successfully.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if you doubt your eSIM has been successfully activated, here\u2019s what you need to do.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For iOS devices, head to <strong>Settings<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Cellular\/Mobile Data<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Select the eSIM profile (Telstra)<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Turn on line\/Data roaming.<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re on an Android device, ensure your eSIM is activated by clicking on <strong>Settings <\/strong>&gt; <strong>Connections <\/strong>(or Network and internet) &gt; <strong>SIM Manager<\/strong> (or SIMs) &gt; <strong>Status<\/strong>.
