Can't seem to transfer account/esim to new phone.

I get an error during transfer after entering the sms code

Live Chat can't seem to understand or even show attempt to resolve, aside from "goto nearest Bell store". I tried to explain that something is wrong from your site end, but no go. If it was easy to get to a site I would not have attempted online.

Hey there @valkala ,

Welcome to Community and thanks for your post. 

Specifically for transferring an eSIM, you may need to visit in-store for ID verification. Make sure you have your eSIM phone number and EID on hand.

Another trick you can try is to ensure you are using an up to date web browser, turning off any VPNs, making sure your My Account app is updated to it's latest version. If you're still faced with the error after, try turning your web browser in incognito/private mode.

SIM to eSIM or SIM transfer to a new phone

If you are simply completing a SIM to eSIM or SIM transfer to a new phoneOpens in a new tab or window- and are in possession of the original SIM and device, follow the instructions below or linked above to complete.
