- If I go to the T-mobile website, it just directs you to the BMW app.
- Once in the BMW app, under 3rd party services, the only option is the eSIM, which looks to be only applicable for the iX and x4. So no dice there.
- I see BMW is still an option on AT&T's site, so I wondered if that's what we're using. But my MSISDN number (which I finally got by pushing the SOS button), is 15 digits so I can't get that accepted there.

Judging by the fact that a search of this forum didn't turn up a lot, I'm sensing I'm missing something.

Am i the only one struggling with this? I've had several cars with wifi plans and i've never been more frustrated than i am right now with something that should be very simple to do.


How long does the trial last? I got my x7 in June. Can you only get the hot spot through T mobile? Also how much is it a month or can you buy an annual plan.
