iPhone 17

So I've ordered the iPhone 17 around 2 weeks ago, it currently still says on back order. I've ordered it with unlimited calls/text and data. My phone contract runs out in a few days hence why I ordered a new phone. It's eSIM I've ordered as I wanted to keep my current number- so how would I go about activating it? In my current phone for now till my 17 arrives ? Is that possible ?

It isn't possible to transfer a number from one Sky sim to another so the work around is to move it to a PAYG network then back again to your new Sky with the unlimited package on it.

Sorry I'm moving my number from EE to sky , my contract with EE is coming to an end and I wanted a upgrade. What I'm trying to

say is can I activate my sim with my new sky package on my current iPhone till my new iPhone 17 comes ?

Yes you can do this as it doesn't matter what device the sim is in.
