How to get an USA phone number while living in Europe?
Hello, everybody!
I currently live in Europe but will be start visiting the US frequently (and ultimately moving here). I was wondering if there’s a way of already setting up an eSIM with my future US number that i can just activate any time I’m here and that I’ll just be able to use for good once I’m here permanently.
I have checked and my phone is compatible with eSims (Iphone 17 pro). My plan is to keep my physical European sim card as my primary number for now while also having the eSim activated to potentially receive texts and calls from the US number (ideally without having to pay extra). Is that possible?
Also, a few follow-up questions:
- Will I have to pay monthly or can I just pay whenever i need to use it?
- What operator is the best?
- How do I go about getting the eSIM? I’ve tried going into my settings but i just get redirected and I’m feeling pretty lost.
Thank you so much! :)))
Edit: thank y’all for all the answers:)
