Once you remove the data plan, go under Settings > Mobile Data, and under the lines where you see "No SIM", tap on it. It will ask you to update contacts. Select one of your active lines.
After that, it will disappear for good.
Got a tip for us?

Couldn't be less correct.
Not all of these devices have eSIM (A2104, A2108) or even dual sim of any kind (A2100).
Whatever. I guess we should all just throw our hands up and not try to find a resolution, instead just accepting any old crap we're given. If you don't have something productive to offer why bother.
I have DB3 on a Max with dual sims. No problems at all. None of what you describe and can’t find anything else not working as expected with dual sim. Maybe it’s related to your physical sim card itself. You could have it swapped to see if that solves your problem. (Yes, I did read that it works for you with iOS 12 but maybe 13 has unknown problems with certain sim cards?).
LOL I proposed solutions to you but you want someone else to try before you do.
Everyone acts like that so in the end we can never verify whether or not something works.
I’d try it, but I don’t have any issues.
You might as well restore to iOS 12 like some other people did
Have some questions about eSIM.. just switched my physical SIM over to e, (so not using dual, just eSIM). The Rogers rep said dont restore the phone or it'll wipe the eSIM data and ill have to pay $10 for another eSIM card/QRC or reactivate my physical SIM.
Is this true? If it is, does making a backup, restoring as new, then restoring the backup also bring back the eSIM data?
Does wiping all NETWORK settings remove my eSIM data? Does wiping ALL SETTINGS, remove my eSIM data?

eSIM is not backed up and can’t be restored any other way than with a new QRC.
I have read elsewhere that wiping the phone does not effect the eSIM—it will still be there until you actually choose to delete it.
You will always have to get a new eSIM if you switch phone.
He lied, they don't know what they're talking about.
- Restoring via iTunes does not wipe the eSIM.
- When resetting by going to Settings > General > Erase All Content and Settings, you're given the choice to reset and keep the eSIM or reset and erase it.
- Resetting Network Settings do not erase the eSIM.
The physical SIM works with iOS 13 too. I can receive calls on the number of the physical SIM and I can also disable the eSIM primary line and then call out via the physical SIM.
It's still a variable in terms of the hardware supported for a specific iOS version or even a single IPSW...
That was my point. In fact it's potentially more variables, since you're looking at changes in both baseband and sim presence between those various models you listed. It's definitely not just 2 as the other guy said.
Just experienced that iMessages with dual SIM uses the wrong number when sending messages. I sent from my work number but when checking afterwards it uses my private number, which is my default number. Then I tried with several others and it always uses my private number for iMessages even though all settings are correct and I choose my work number.
This one is really scarry since it’s not ordinary to dig into the menus afterwards and check if the correct number is used.
Using latest beta version.

Are you starting a new conversation? If not, there was always the limitation of not being able to switch which number you are using unless you delete th entire conversation. Be default an existing conversation uses the number you have used previously (unless it was physically removed as a sim card)
[doublepost=1562657371][/doublepost]Guys, based on your messages it is unclear whether there is a issue with the dual sim functionality that is related to iOS 13 beta. When I updated the first time my dual sim was working properly. Now based on your comments I am afraid to update again (I changed devices so I am back iOS 12).
When I start a NEW conversation from my work number it’s being sent from my private number. I have my private number as default data number.
It uses the default number for the contact. Also, there is a difference between default line and mobile data line. Finally, if it is an imessage then the number used is selected under the Messages settings.
The problem is for real.
I have Work as default for the contact I sent the message to and it also said on the screen it was going to be sent using Work. But when it was sent, the person called me back asking if I have a new phone number. I then checked the info for the sent message and it had been sent from my Private number. No doubt this is a bug and not a fault from my settings.
Btw, I know very well there’s a difference between default line and default mobile data line. As I said—it’s clearly a bug and the problem is that since people seldom check the info for NEW sent iMessages people don’t know it was sent from the wrong number.
