Phone number verification failure on BHIM app using Jio SIM

Hi - This is not a question but want to share a tip. I was unable to use the BHIM app for last few days. I use to get a message saying verification timed out.

I finally got it to work this morning. I use Jio eSIM and Airtel physical SIM on my iPhone. The following worked

Shutdown the phone
Removed the physical Airtel SIM
Restarted the phone
Turned off WIFI
Made sure that data is set to Jio SIM
Started BHIM
Worked!

iPhone 5s, iOS 12
