If you search 'Esim' in the search box at the top of the Sky Mobile forum page you'll see lots of posts asking the same. Sky have not announced if or when this will happen.

Re: Can I convert to e Sim.

The fact that Sky does not support eSIM, yet, stopped my order of new iphone 14 as currently I have iphone XR with esim and one physcail SIM< hence I have two lines in one form, cannot go back to single one

Hi @dadah,

 

E-sim from Sky is coming this year, so watch this space. We don't have a specific date, but it's in the pipeline to launch this year. 

 

Thanks

Thanks to the Sky employee for confirming esim coming this year 2023.


I'm waiting for this esim and would greatly appreciate being given notice. I hope it does happen this year.

Thanks for advising that esim will be a sky thing soon, does this mean we can soon pair watch esims with our mobiles in the future?

Sometime later this year apparently. There has been no announcement yet.

A physical SIM will work just as well.  My hunch is they will be an option near the release of the iPhone 15 which is likely to be eSIM only...
