Ordering Your SIM or eSIM

Ordering your SIM

Written by Olly Levine

Once you've chosen your CyberTel plan, getting connected is quick and straightforward. You can choose between a physical SIM card or a digital eSIM — whichever suits your device and lifestyle best.

Both options include your UK number, unlimited calls and texts, and your selected data allowance.


Physical SIM or eSIM — What's the Difference?

Best For

Devices without eSIM support

Modern iPhones, Androids & tablets

💡 If your device supports eSIM, we recommend it — it's faster, greener, and more flexible.


How to Place Your Order

  1. Visit cybertel.uk/mobile and select your plan

  2. Choose Physical SIM or eSIM at checkout

  3. Enter your details and delivery address

  4. Pay securely via card or Direct Debit through Stripe

  5. Receive your confirmation email with activation instructions

Your SIM will be shipped immediately, or your eSIM QR code will arrive in your inbox within minutes.


Payments & Security

All payments are handled securely through Stripe. You can pay by card or set up a Direct Debit — whichever you prefer. You'll receive a confirmation email once your first payment is processed, and future renewals happen automatically every 30 days.

CyberTel never stores your payment details — everything is managed safely through Stripe's encrypted system.


What Happens After You Order

If you chose a Physical SIM:
Your SIM will be dispatched immediately and arrive within 1–3 working days via Royal Mail. Activation instructions will be included in your welcome email.

If you chose an eSIM:
Your QR code will arrive in your inbox within minutes. Simply scan it to activate your plan — full instructions will be included in your welcome email.

Your plan becomes active as soon as your SIM or eSIM connects to the network.
