Samsung A56 eSIM shows Emergency calls only – verification code not received

Brogan11 — Wed, 23 Sep 2026 10:06:39 GMT

I cannot receive the verification code for my replacement eSIM because my existing Sky Mobile eSIM is not registered on the network.

My Samsung Galaxy A56 5G shows “Emergency calls only” and “Not registered on network”. SIM Manager also shows my mobile number as “Unknown”. I cannot make or receive calls or SMS, and mobile data does not work.

I have already tried to request a replacement eSIM through my Sky account, but the security verification code is being sent to the affected Sky Mobile number, so I cannot receive it.

I am NOT transferring my number from another provider. My existing number is already a Sky Mobile number and I need to keep it.

Please escalate this to a Sky staff member / Messaging team so I can complete the replacement eSIM process.
