Dual eSIM on iPhone 14
Does anyone know, definitively, if one can have two TMobile lines on an iPhone 14? Today, I have an iPhone with a physical SIM and and eSIM. Both are TMobile lines - what Apple calls "cellular plans"...
Well, short answer - it does work. My current iPhone 14 Pro (purchased at Apple) is using two eSims
Long answer - it took two hours on phone with high level tech support. The key seems to be making sure Cellular Data is turned OFF on the phone.
That, and considerable patience and tenacity
¡Buena suerte!

The problem seems to be the EID is already in use on an existing number so it won't let you reuse the EID. Im sure if it was two separate providers it wouldn't be a problem but same provider seems our systems and reps can't figure it out

I don't know how Apple's eSIM is implemented, but eSIM's are more commonly used on Prepaid accounts, unless that has now changed. Have you tried reaching out to T-Mobile Support via 611 or the T-Force Team via Facebook or Twitter to see if they can help with you setting up Dual-eSIM on your iPhone 14?
T-Mobile's eSIM help page has nothing about Dual-eSIM. https://www.t-mobile.com/support/devices/device-troubleshooting/apple-on-device-activation-troubleshooting

It's based on device capability, newer iPhone can have up to 6 sim profiles installed while only two can be active for switching. Esim isn't new to Android. My android from 2018 had 2 esim profiles with tmobile. Currently one of my iPhone se 3rd generation has 2 active esim profile no psim.
It can be done. Just gotta get to the right person.
