I had the same issue as everybody else on this thread (now resolved): I clicked on an offer to switch from Public to Koodo and found myself an eSIM orphan with no QR code. I was wondering if the glitch might have something to do with the fact that l was a Koodo client at some point in the past before Public and maybe the system thought there was already a koodo sim card associated to my account. Just a thought. 

I have already flagged this re-occurring issue to a rep recently and to see if other pathways are also impacted.

@Georgia Koodo ​@Flo Koodo can you send me a QR code? A Telus rep ported me over says the number is successfully transferred but I cannot activate the esim

I'm having the same issue. Not receiving the esim notification and I wasn't sent a QR code.

I ended up with my iPhone deleting or corrupting my eSIM trying to recover eSIM and says it pushed a notification to continue setup. However I have no cell service so never received it.  There’s another option for using QR code but I never received it.  Is there anyway to get this QR code

Hi ​@Gnasher 

Can you please confirm the last two digits of the phone number in question?

Have you tried  resetting the network settings on your device, turning airplane mode on and off and restarting your phone?

I recently switched to Koodo and my number has been transferred, but I never received the eSIM QR code or activation notification. My Samsung is ready to scan the QR code, but I need Koodo to send me the eSIM activation QR code/setup instructions. I currently cannot make or receive calls.

Thanks. I have canceled with Koodo as I have been without a phone since yesterday. This has never happened before. I have changed providers.

Hello,

I think I'm having the same problem. Self serve says number has been successfully transferred but I don't know during which step the esim transfer failed as it was started automatically on iPhone - I did not receive a QR code. Currently without service. If a rep could resend an email for esim set up that would be great!

 

Thank you very much,

Hi ​@CapC 

We are sorry to hear that you are experiencing this issue!

Will you please let us know if you had the chance to restart your phone, then switch airplane mode on and back off?

If you don’t receive the esim notification, please wait a few minutes after the restart and try another restart.

Please let us know if you get the notification after these steps!

Hello, yes I've tried restarting and turning airplane mode on and off. I did receive another automatic request to add e-sim a few minutes prior to restarting but it still says it failed. Have not received any requests since for 10 minutes. I've added esims many times before with no issues..not sure why it's not going through this time. I'm porting from Public mobile.  If you could please send the email with QR code that'd be great. Thank you!

Hi ​@MagicMikey 

Just to double check, have you tried restarting your phone and turning airplane mode on and off?

  • September 1, 2026

Thank you for the reply. I’ve restarted my phone, yes. The issue is that my eSIM was never entered into my phone as I have NEVER received a QR code to be able to scan it.
