Hey everyone,

Ordered my new iPhone SE 2020 for Verizon through Walmart. The phone came with no Sim Card so I have a few questions.

Usually these phones come with a sim card so I just turn it on and activate but this time I transferred my sim card from my old iPhone 7 to the SE. Is that bad?

Is there a newer Sim Card I should request from Verizon that will work better with this new model? Don't want to limit the phone.

Also, on my account, the new iPhone SE does not show up. The phone works as should/says Verizon up top but my device payment plan for this new phone and correct description is missing. Should I just give it a few days to update on their end?

Thanks!
 
I bought from Walmart as well. My SIM card arrived in a separate package one week before I received the iPhone SE.

That said, just transferring the SIM is fine. iPhone 7 already supports VoLTE and all that stuff anyway so the SIM shouldn't be missing any features (until the 5G switch anyway).

Give it some time. Device payment plan shows up in my Verizon account but the device information still shows my old iPhone 7.
