PAYG moving to eSIM

[Bamboccio]

Hello,

I am on PAYG and I have a new phone which is eSIM only. What is the easiest way  to survival?

thank you!!!

@Bamboccio According to this link esims are not available on Pay & Go: eSIMs: How to get and set up an eSIM

You may have to look at GiffGaff to see if they provide it: How do I get an eSIM on giffgaff? | giffgaff Help

Yep, not available on O2 PAYG. If O2's signal is good for you then giffgaff as suggested. Some other networks do eSIMs on 30 day contracts. Voxi (Vodafone) and Spusu (EE) come to mind.

or a 30 dat contract or any other contract with O2.

Thank you to all. I would like to stay with O2. Would the essential £10 work on eSIM?

Any of these and cheaper on uswitch https://www.uswitch.com/mobiles/compare/sim_only_deals/o2/

Thank you!  I would like to use one of those packages but when I try to say that I am already a customer it says that I have no plans.  I wonder if it would be easy to transfer the number.  Should I first signup and then move the number or just go to a shop?

Thanks!

You'll be a new customer as your old tariff is PAYG.

I would go into a store, as they will be able to help you a lot better, the downside is you wont get the uswitch deals.. 

or port out and get better deals with giffgaff or other esim networks such as Spusu, Slice Mobile or Mozillion...
