Prepaid customer upgrading from a phone with a physical SIM card to one that only accepts ESIM

I have a prepaid account for my child and recently upgraded the phone from an iphone XR to an iphone 14 (unlocked). The iphone 14 does not have a physical SIM card, it uses ESIM. How do I change the account over to the new phone without having to get a new phone number?

Cancel plan temporarily

I am outside of the US and need to cancel my prepaid plan. To make changes to my account, I need to know my 4 digit PIN. To reset this PIN, I need to receive a text. I cannot receive texts because I am abroad on a prepaid plan. How can I cancel my plan or AutoPay until I return? Thank you.

Need to cancel account

AT&T makes it very hard to cancel prepaid accounts. For that reason, I will no longer use their services. Please let me know how to cancel. If I don't find a response, I'll let my credit card company know.

Network Reset Required After Plan Renewal

I'm wondering if it's normal to require a network reset each and every month when my pre-paid plan renews. Once my plan renews if I do not do a network reset, I have ZERO data until I do so. Is this normal? I'm using an iPhone 11 Pro Max.

Bad experience switching from T-Mobile to ATT

Your management of Prepaid really stinks. Everything along the way was a roadblock. I'm extremely frustrated.The SIM card in Best Buy was twice the price of online. Why? So, I ordered online. I also requested porting my phone number to ATT at that time.I got the card and there are conflicting in
