eSIM and iMessage

Lontennis — Thu, 01 Feb 2024 18:00:00 GMT

I have left Canada and initiated my eSIM card. It all works EXCEPT iMessage. I get a “waiting for sctivation” message. Things I’ve tried….changing passwords, visiting Apple Store ( they said call my Primary provider).
Can you assist?? Thanks

If you have a phone from a Bell store or it had a Bell sim and you had a Bell contract, it may be sim locked. This forum can't address this, unfortunately.

As this is not a Bell sim or account, it is beyond the scope of the forum.
