          Was in nth America last year, primarily national parks. Tmobile was next to useless outside the major towns. More importantly, my data usage while 'roaming' was something like 300mb, rather than the 6gb of the plan. Having said that, at&t (think telstra) was an absolute PITA to set up

        • StrayfireX on 02/04/2018 - 19:24

          If you are staying with US friends you can usually find H2O (AT&T MVNO) SIMs with $30 credit (first month) selling for less than their included value on eBay USA.

          Get the seller to post to their address.

          Eg this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/H2O-Wireless-SIM-CARD-30-1st-MONTH-…

  • deathjr on 02/04/2018 - 19:02

    From my US trip last year, I'll say one thing - T-Mobile Coverage in many parts of the country is an absolute joke. With a 4G sim, I only ever got low 3G speeds in places like Atlanta, Vegas, LA and San Francisco. No or minimal data coverage outside of big cities.

    Does this sim use the T-Mobile network directly, or via another provider? That can be night and day difference in the quality of the coverage and speeds that you get.

    It's a China Unicom SIM card, roaming on T-Mobile USA, right? I'm assuming the answers are yes, but could you please confirm that:

    1. It comes with a US mobile number (ie sends/receives calls and messages using a +1 xxx yyy zzzz number); and
    2. The allocated data isn't content restricted (such as might be expected with a Chinese telco)?

      Yes correct, apart of Cuniq's(China Unicom) 'Travel SIMs'.

      1. Yes it does, the number is texted to you after activation.
      2. No it is not content restricted. Funnily enough China Unicoms China Traveller SIM is also not restricted. As compared to their standard Chinese SIMs (not for travellers).

  • randoom on 02/04/2018 - 20:20

    Brilliant, thanks, got one earlier.

    A bit of feedback: the 'Departure date' is a bit ambiguous — does that mean departure from Australia or departure from my destination in the USA? Since it didn't come up later in the checkout I didn't know what it meant. Does it have any bearing on the SIM card I get or the activation process?

      Thanks for the order!

      Great feedback, thankyou. I will change it to 'When do you leave Australia?'

      What do you think? Is that clearer?

      No it doesn't have any impact on your SIM. It is simply to help us look after customers by understanding when they leave and making sure we get their order to them on time.

      Again. Thanks for the feedback!

      -Aidan

      • randoom on 03/04/2018 - 20:23

        Yep, that'd make sense. The other bit which was hard to guess was whether it was departure time AEST or US time (eg if it were influencing auto-activation for instance) — but that wording answers that too. Fwiw, I think my confusion stems from having used other SIM providers which ask for "arrival date" - you don't know whether that means "date I arrive in the USA" or "date I arrive in the USA in Australian time so the local rep can activate my SIM for me". I like your self-activation process — that avoids any issues!

        Thanks for the detailed explanation - great customer service :)

    • TonyH on 02/04/2018 - 20:24

      Actually a great question I never thought of it other than departure from Australia.

      Hi dory,

      We don't have anything planned for Vietnam unfortunately (not within the next few months anyway).

      We do have a China/HK SIM on our website you can check out here.

      Vietnam is a tricky one. They are pretty strict with their communication laws there so it will be difficult getting partnerships. However it is possible!

      Subscribe to us on OzBargain and you will get notified when we post deals for new countries.

      I hope this helps,
      -Aidan

    Good Timing. Bought 3. Do you ship to other country? Thank you

      Woop!Thanks for your order <3

      We can ship internationally via Australia Post Airmail. It takes anywhere from 7-15 business days depending on country.

      Hope this helps!

    Does the price include GST? How do I get a tax invoice? I just bought 4…

      Hi DKC,

      SIM cards are actually GST exempt.

      What is your order number?

      Cheers,

        Order 1592.

          Awesome, I'll get an invoice out to you.

          That's a great question.

          From my understanding (I spoke to my accountant about this but can't completely remember), it is because most prepaid SIM Cards hold no actual value until activated by the user.

          Data/Calls/Texts/Mobile Numbers (the actual value) are all held by the Teleco provider in a pool and is only assigned to your SIM card after activation.

          It's pretty sneaky but hey… that's Teleco's for you!

          I hope this helps.

    Posting this in LA now using this sim bought from their 1st deal. So far so good.
    Tip: set up can take a bit longer than 5 min after calling 622 and hearing the voice recording saying I should receive sms under 5min. Be patient and it should work. Didn't get any phone number via sms though. But easy to find.
