I need to order a new SIM card but can't use voice calls or text messages

Hi there,

I've had a really bad experience due to the Vodafone network change and new SIM card being required. I received a second SIM card delivery that I ordered but for some reason Virgin Mobile sent out a third which has since been lost in the post and which subsequently meant the SIM card I already had did not activate.

I've been without signal for over four weeks now and I'm unable to order a new SIM card because it looks like the online chat has been suspended and I cannot use voice calls or text messages due to there being no signal on my phone.

Is there any way to order a new SIM card? It shouldn't have to take four being sent but really hoping this time I'll receive it and it'll work. 

Thanks in advance.

Hi poline54,

Thanks for your post 
Sorry to hear about the issue with your Sim Card 
I can look into this for you 
If you don't mind, I will need to send you a private message to pass security 
If you can check the purple envelope top right of your screen that would be great

Thanks for those details poline54, 

I have just activated the Esim for you 

Can you reboot the phone and see if that works

The Esim is now working so there is no need to send a physical SIM card - thanks a lot for your help, Gareth!

Thats fantastic news poline54. 

I went to order one and saw the Esim needed activating from here.

Glad its all fixed now
