unlike physical sim card, esim cannot be transferred from phone to phone, but you can buy a Free replacement. 

What you need to do is to download the PM app on the new phone, login to the app, go to Account page and choose Buy sim card and select eSIM.

the system might still charge you the $5.  Pay and install the esim first.

After the new esim is installed, submit a ticket with PM agent and for reimbursement.  You can submit ticket with CS Agent using this Chatbot link:  https://widget.telus.tiia.ai/publicmobile/publicmobile.html  Type the question "Submit ticket", Then click the following in order: "Contact Us" ,  "Other",  "Log In".  
If any issue with ticket submission, you can  submit by direct message:

You cannot switch eSIM. 

You must download the Public Mobile app to your new phone and purchase a new eSIM. 

If the previous eSIM was purchased more than 15 days ago, the system should not charge you for the replacement. 

Go to Account,  Purchase SIM card,  purchase eSIM.
