The time it takes for eSIM to be activated may vary depending on the mobile carrier's policy, so it may take several hours to activate even after completing the QR scan. Therefore, if the QR code does not work, we recommend that you do not delete it and wait for about an hour. If it doesn't work even after waiting, or if it doesn't work after trying all of the methods below, please contact Maltalk support team.
1.Turn on data roaming and GPS and turn airplane mode off and on. Data roaming is a feature that allows your device to connect to cellular networks outside your country or region. Additionally, GPS determines your current location. So, if you are traveling and cannot connect to a network, turn on data roaming and GPS will enable eSIM and enable you to use it properly.
After scanning the eSIM QR Code, go to your phone settings and turn on data roaming and GPS. In that state, turn airplane mode on and off. ESIM will be set automatically after 1-2 minutes.
2. Please check if it's a eSIM that needs to be opened In the case of deliberation that requires the opening of esim, you must enter the opening date or contact us to request an opening data. Please check whether the eSIM requires an opening date on the eSIM details page you purchased.
3.Reset Network Settings Resetting the network settings can be a solution to the network issues on your Phone. Resetting it will make the device forget every Wi-Fi network, Bluetooth connection, and VPN setting it has ever used.
If esim does not work, please reset the network.
