    Porting to Airmobile - a cautionary tale

    @AfriNatic Thank you. That is the first promising update I have received since contacting support about this. It's still concerning that it takes 3 days for Airmobile and MTN to find a solution to such an impactful issue. Not encouraging at all...

    iMessage activation issue

    I don't have an eSIM, but also experiencing this issue. It is the same Vodacom SIM that worked with with my previous iPhones. I'm also post-paid contract customer and can see the +44 SMS on my bill. The reply from Apple servers to activate never reaches me though. I've already spent several...
