I’ll be moving to the England for 3 years but would like to keep my US cell phone number I’ve had for the past 10 years.

I see people talk about google voice, but I’d rather avoid that. Is there a way to port my number from AT&T to an English carrier that uses eSIM?

I have an iPhone 15 with eSIM to give you some information on the phone I have.

Thanks.

    Yes, you either keep paying monthly, or you work on a contact change (if you’re off contract it’s very easy) and get the minimum service to keep the number, or you upgrade to a service that allows international calling and roaming. There is a pitfall in the form of you have to verify if they will flag you for using the service excessively out of country. If so, then a way out is to turn off the SIM slot in your phone and use the other SIM if dual, or ust remove the SIM and use it every few months to prevent the account from going dormant.
