Hi. @zakariya10

Restart your phone.

The sim swap can take from 30 minutes to 24 hours to finish the transfer.

@zakariya10  Welcome to giffgaff and the community

 

It can take up to 24 hours to fully complete a simswap just keep rebooting for a bit longer to see if it completes

 

If still not fully completed after 24 hours check to see if any problems with any masts here ⬇️

 

Coverage And Service

 

i hope this helps
