Worst service ever! DO NOT waste your money! Unresponsive and bad customer service. The global eSIM I purchased before traveling didn’t work in the… Read more
USA at all! After insisting the offered me a complimentary USA-only eSIM that stopped working after TWO days of usage!
Then I had to buy another eSIM card from a different provider, obviously, for the rest of my trip outside the USA.
Extremely disappointing and unreliable!
I asked for reimbursement since day 1 contacting you but got no response to that. Felt like a proper scam!
Roameo
fantastic product Very reliable and was enabled as soon as I landed Easy to monitor usage to know if you need a top up

Fantastic service from these guys. When emailed with a problem I got a return email within 1 hour with help. Couldn’t fault them and will use again next time I travel Show details

Usual Robbery – It was a great idea to purchase this sim for a back up. However I was prompted via SMS to recharge as the 30 day expiry was drawing near, so I did… Read more
this 8 days out and I lost those 8 days as the new start date became active as soon as my payment went through. Now I have just received another SMS prompting the same response but doing my maths I should be recharging on the 10th Feb not the 3rd as they claim. I have tried to live chat with them but I would have more luck winning power ball this Thursday. Usual rort.

I bought a OneSimCard expedition card for travelling in Africa. I had nothing but trouble from the start. My test call worked but I couldn’t phone a… Read more
landline back home. They finally fixed that up after a few goes. Then people couldn’t phone me with my PEN from home. Don’t know if this ever worked after they told me that the person phoning didn’t have to put the country code in which was part of the PEN. I gave up after that because I’d already spent nearly US$12 trying to fix things up. Different staff give different answers. I don’t recommend this card.
BambooSIM
We used BambooSIM during our Christmas trip to Poland. We had no issues with coverage despite being closer to the mountains and the installation process was super easy. Show details
United Global Sim
Easy to use. Worked great on holiday – Worked great on my trip to NZ. Easy to set up and plenty of data

Cherry is very helpful, happy to help and very efficient. Cherry is a valuable asset to the company

I’ve been using FLEXIROAM for about 3 years now … when I got my Mastercard & got the 3gb free … I didn’t really understand how the eSIM worked back… Read more
then so had them send me a physical sim … the whole thing was just a nightmare … frustrating from both sides & I guess a 50/50 issue on both sides. I have had an eSIM for about 2 years now & ❤️ love it…. I have used it in approx 15 countries & it hasn’t missed a beat …. I was getting range when lots of people on our tour of South Africa.. then India .. then Borneo were struggling with theirs + this covers more countries than Airolo… my sister-in-law didn’t even get hers working on our trip to Spain & Italy … she just gave up! FLEXIROAM has fantastic very quick service on the Live Chat & always explain it in simple steps … my queries are usually re data rollover rather than the actual phone … I’m off for 4 months to the US & Canada next week & hopefully my eSIM will fire up like it always does!
UK Prepaid Sim Card
I bought a prepaid Sim for our visit to the UK next month. The phone number of the the prepaid sim will be sent to us via txt message on the day it… Read more
is activated. However we need to book transport for our arrival, and then also to get us to the airport for our return flight to Australia, but can't conclude the booking because we have not been given the phone number. Unfortunately stating our phone number is mandatory. Considering that we can't use the phone before the activation date, I don't understand why we could not have been given the phone number in advance. On our next visit to the UK in 2026, we won't bother buying a prepaid sim with this company in Australia.
Saily
Deleading Coverage – Waste of Money I purchased the 20 GB Africa package on Saily website, which claims on its website and support enquires to cover… Read more
all of Africa countries including national parks . Unfortunately, the actual service is severely limited. The data only worked in the Cape Town, Johannesburg CBD area. As soon as I traveled to major destinations including national park areas, Victoria Falls, Serengeti National Park, and Maasai Mara National Reserve there was almost zero coverage. Out of the 20 GB I paid for, I was only able to use 3 GB because of these dead zones. It was a complete waste of money. I would not recommend this package if you plan on traveling outside major city centers of Africa
Roamless
Excellent coverage in all countries I have visited so far, using data only. I purchased a $50 eSIM on the plane and it was all working within minutes. The best thing is that the credit doesn't expire so I just use it on my next trip. It just works :)
USA Prepaid Simcard
SCAM ALERT – Total scam, doesn't even work in major cities in the USA eg LA , Palm Springs. I haven't had internet our whole trip, ive tried to troubleshoot and… Read more
contact them for support but i can never get on to them / no body gets back to me. I went for the unlimited data pack and ive used no data. I should have just paid for roaming.
DataGO
Scam. Promised an email with my code in 24 hours. No code provided – I ordered a 3UK top up (20 pounds version). Got "confirmation" of my order so they could bill my US credit card. Once they got paid, NO code.… Read more
Complete rip-off. Avoid at all costs. Emails to "Peter" went unanswered. Reviews on site appear to be fake. Don't get tricked.
BNESIM
DO NOT BUY BNESIM products including eSIM. I give BNESIM a negative rating or zero stars. I bought a eSIM I never used. The steps /process referred … Read more
to iPhones and not Android. So I didn't bother. 1)The email said to "If you don’t wish to renew your subscription, be sure to cancel it at least one day before the renewal date to avoid any charges. To modify or cancel your plan, open the BNESIM app, tap the side menu, go to Subscriptions, and manage your subscription details." It was very hard to navigate to unsubscribe. There was only an option to "deactivate" under my Profile. I was still charged a renewal fee even though I unsubscribed before the due date. I was told there was no refund option, only a credit. 2) Even worse was when I arrived back in Australia, BNESIM changed my telecom supplier to Optus, which I don't use and never used. I copied their message "That looks like BNESIM’s standard arrival notification — BNESIM normally auto-connects to a local partner (e.g., Optus) if your plan covers Australia and mobile data roaming is enabled" I removed my credit card details and deleted the app.

Would have given 5 stars but I had to do my own research to get the correct settings on my iPhone to make the sim work. Their instructions only got… Read more
me half way. Which doing so crouched on the floor of a foreign airport can be quite stressful. I also pre prepared a copy of the QR code on my iPad so I could scan it straight away from my phone. Do this if you don't know how to scan QR codes on your phone's email. Once working it was perfect and I had good coverage in Japan. I also didn't use half as much data as I thought I would so I think they are safe on that front. All in all a good experience once I set up my phone correctly. *Travellers tip turn off your home SIM card before you land. My provider automatically signed me up for roaming without my permission whilst I was setting up this new e-sim. Could cost you a lot if you receive a lot of text messages on arrival.

Scamming, don't buy! – have ordered item 108162 from this company. I don't often accuse companies of fraud, but unfortunately, this company is far from reliable when it comes to the promised amounts. They promised 3GB, but they cut you off after only 2.5GB. Show details

connectivity. Sometime it worked sometimes it did not. Then bought a second eSIM card for 15 days and did not work at all. I got in touch with team and the back a forth was taking a chunk of time. Very stressful having to deal with while your minor is by himself.
The team kept saying if you told us before etc but you do not have to experience this they do not get it that a teenager won’t be dealing with this issue the way they expected
I do not recommend using this company.
In March 2025, before going on a self-driving tour in New Zealand, I bought two prepaid NZ 10G sim cards (one for my wife). When I arrived in NZ, I… Read more
activated the two sim cards and immediately called my wife to make sure that the two sim cards were working. Three days later, I found that both sim cards could not access the Internet. I called the sim card provider (the local telecommunications company is called 2Degree) to ask what went wrong. The answer I got was that the data on my two sim cards had been used up. I told the lady who answered my question that I basically did not use the data on the sim cards. The campvan I rented was equipped with a navigation device, and my phone came with offline Google Maps, so I did not need to connect to the Internet for navigation. I arrived at the campsite, and the campsite provided free wifi. Moreover, I had no time or opportunity to use wifi in the first three days. At this time, a strange answer came. The lady said that the sim card is in your phone, and the data is also in your phone. How can I know how 20G of data ran away? You can either top up some money or upgrade to another plan. This was a really disgusting experience. I would advise not to buy this kind of rubbish sim card, it will let you down at the critical moment.
