Abstract: A mobile terminal includes a communication device to communicate with an external entity, a storage device to store an identifier, and a processing device. The processing device activates a communication profile, transmits a notification relating to the activation to an external entity, and stores an identifier of the activation in the storage device. The processing device further receives a deactivation request and an identifier from the external entity and deactivates the communication profile if the received identifier corresponds to the stored identifier. The identifier can be determined by the mobile terminal and transmitted from the mobile terminal to the external entity. The identifier can also be determined by the external entity and transmitted to the mobile terminal.

Abstract: A communication function is provided. An activation request to enable a communication profile in a first user equipment is received at a mobile network operator (MNO). The communication profile is associated with a user. A maximum number of communication profiles associated with the user can be provided at the same time. A number of communication profiles which are associated with the user and which are currently enabled are determined by the MNO. In response to determining that the number of communication profiles which are associated with the user and which are currently enabled is equal to the maximum number of communication profiles are determined, a communication profile associated with the user in a second UE is disabled, and a communication profile associated with the user in the first UE is enabled.
