SIM card
Dear Terry
I always enjoy reading your articles and financial advice . Last Sunday you mentioned SIM card protection so I decided to follow up. I contacted Xfinity mobile (my cellular service) about setting up a SIM card protection code.
Here is what they told me .
For iPhones 14 plus or newer there is no need to input a protection code . He told me that for newer models the SIM card cannot be transferable to another phone # as it’s an eSIM
My phone however is a iPhone 13 and has a physical SIM card so I set up a a SIM card code
Thanks always for your advice

That’s not exactly correct. SIM cards can be stolen electronically. It’s not about the physical card in your phone.
I highly recommend SIM protection.
