Unable to activate eSIM of Airtel on IPhone 13 running on iOS 16.0.2
I have done the whole eSIM process given at https://www.airtel.in/esim more than 10 times now. But receiving following error.
1) When Physical SIM airtel is present and when I try to add the same sim as esim "Unable to activate eSIM. Your eSIM could not be activated. Contact AirTel for assistance".
2) When Physical SIM is some other carrier. I am getting the error saying "Unsupported eSIM. This eSIM is from a network provider that is not currently supported on this iPhone. To use this eSIM, contact your provider and request to unlock this iPhone".
I noticed many people are facing this issue on twitter. I'm pretty much confused if iOS 16.0.2 caused this issue or not. Earlier eSIMs were working fine in airtel. I contact airtel multiple times. They are unable to help and are suggesting there is nothing such as unlocking involved in airtel. Does any one aware of a solution to overcome this issue.
iPhone 13, iOS 16
