So now you’re fucking around in the settings ensuring data etc. is off on your regular Telus sim, turn it back on to get the SMS, then quickly jump back to the travel sim for the data to login to banking etc.
I’m almost certain I got charged for the momentary blip of cellular data switching over to my regular sim even though I had it disabled the entire time but didn’t feel like spending 3 hours on the phone to fight over $15

Ideally you leave the Telus esim active, just leave data roaming off, and have the travel esim active at the same time for the data. I did this for a month this year across 3 countries in Asia without any roaming charges.
