T-Mobile is facing a widespread issue preventing subscribers from using their new SIMs. Multiple users have reported being unable to make calls, send texts, and connect to the internet after activating a new SIM on their devices, even though the SIM appears active on T-Mobile’s end.

Although T-Mobile has not issued a statement on the matter, an employee has confirmed on Reddit that the company is aware of the issue and is working on a fix. According to another user, the problem seems to have cropped up last evening and affects both physical SIM and eSIM activations.
