You may not have an SMS plan enabled by your carrier for the SIM/eSIM that you use on your device. Apple Inc does not provide SMS services.

Cant receive verification code to activate my phone number I'm traveling and bought a local sim card to use on an old iPhone. I mistakingly switched my phone number linked to my apple account to this old phone with local number, wanting to use data to call. I want to switch back to my original number but cannot seem to receive the verification code which is required. (I'm not in my country of origin for a few more weeks). I need to receive verification SMSs on this number but cannot reassociate it with my apple ID. PLEASE HELP
