This might not go well with Nigerians.....


MTN is trying to strike deals with phone companies to be the ones to be selling their products directly in order to imbibe their e-sims into the devices before marketing it.....like in the case of vodafones....



Just like the olden days CDMA or simless phones.

I read the comments here and see d highest level of ignorance being displayed with confidence. It is well. Some even said they have been using esim before gsm came (vodafone and cdma) . God will heal us from this illiteracy....

when the phone lost can another person use the phone. during the time of zoom starcom the SIM was code to the phone. the number become your personal number even the phone lost another person can not use that phone. I remember when my zoom land-line lost I just went to zoom office I pay certain amount of money and I was given use phone. the other thief who stole my phone couldn't use it because zoom has withdraw service from the stolen phone .the phone because useless if this E-sim would be like land-line is would be good because thief will return your phone or u block it. I think this E SIM is best. thief won't steal our phone anymore

They will surely have learnt from history and they will give an option to call in to them toe deactivate or transfer your line if your phone gets lost or stolen.

We are now in the the days 100% connectivity.
Mark of beast. - A mark that if you don't have it, you can neither buy nor sell...
... That's why many people will not be able to do without taking that mark. ... Cos they can't let go of their phones/SIMs/Connection to network ....for even 1 day.

Connection.... Always connected.... Connected to what?

as a phone manufacturers they suppose to have anti theft install on their devices make it inbuilt app. so when our phone is lost or stolen it will be impossible for anyone to use it. this E-SIM has nothing to do with the mark of the beast. until my stolen phone is returned the original owner then I know the mark of the beast is been activated

So sorry to burst your bubble, but I bought my Tecno Camon 12 1st week of November last year, and I've been rocking my E-sim via the SimO App since last year. Not new to "chinko" phone users like us. Enjoy your high end phone and please leave cheap phone users like us in peace.
