My eSIM is stuck activating

2 minstuckactivatingfrozen

If your eSIM shows 'Activating...' and does not complete, wait at least 5 minutes before troubleshooting — some activations take time on slower connections.

  1. 1Wait 5 minutes — activation can take time on slower connections
  2. 2Make sure you have a stable Wi-Fi connection (not mobile data)
  3. 3Toggle flight mode on and off to reset the network stack
  4. 4Restart your phone fully (power off, power on)
  5. 5If still stuck after 10+ minutes, contact support with your order number

Where to check status

iPhone (iOS)
  1. 1Settings → Mobile Service
  2. 2Your MondoMate eSIM should show as 'Active' or 'Installed' — not 'Activating'
  3. 3If stuck on 'Activating', restart your iPhone and check again
Android
  1. 1Settings → Network & Internet → SIM Manager
  2. 2Your MondoMate eSIM should appear as an installed profile
  3. 3If the status is pending or stuck, restart and check again

Do not delete a partially activated eSIM profile. Deletion is often irreversible. Contact support first and describe what you see on screen.
