    I noticed that the South East esims are with China Unicom. Wont that mean that my data goes via China when roaming in South East Asia?

      Hey @titanix

      The supplier is China Unicom, but the SEA carrier still provides the data locally.

      So there won't be any impact on speed or coverage if that's what you are concerned about.

  • cheesecactus on 06/03/2023 - 02:43

    Just bought 2 of the Europe & UK 12GB sims. Seems like a very good deal for 12GB Europe data plus 25gb UK data for $26! Thanks rep!

    Only one question around the below statement:

    "For a seamless experience, make sure the date you insert at checkout is the exact date you want to start using the SIM, not earlier or later."

    Wording around this is a little concerning, so just double checking.

    For example, if I arrive in the UK on the 29th, would i have any problems if i set the activation date as the 27th?

    Does setting a slightly earlier date that isnt exact, cause issues?

    Hi mate, EU & UK 30 Days (71 Countries) says it includes 12GB of data in Europe, 25GB of data in the UK

    Are these two allowances separate? If I exhaust 12GB outside UK, will I still have 25GB to use in the UK?

    • Store RepSimsDirect @ SimsDirect on 06/03/2023 - 09:31

      Hey @R-Man

      Great question!

      They feed off each other and are not separate.

      If you use 25GB in the UK, you will have nothing to use in the rest of Europe. Vice versa, If you use 12GB in Europe you will have 13GB in UK remaining.

      They are both very similar, the best way to know for sure would be to look at a coverage map on ATT and T-mobile websites.

      This is the best option for tethering here

      Do keep in mind that it has a 10GB limit for tethering/hotspotting.

      We also have a an ATT SIM with a 10GB hot-spotting option also.

      We do not currently have anything for spark mobile.

      Maybe in the future, if they bring out some valuable eSIMs we will consider offering them.

    Thanks OP, got a 15 day one for Azerbaijan. Last time I was there at the airport. Sim prices were a joke, I refused, even with company money!

    Hi Aidan,
    how long are the Sims to Europe valid for? Haven't quite established a travel date, might be end of this year or March 2024. Thanks.

    • Store RepSimsDirect @ SimsDirect on 07/03/2023 - 09:15

      Hey @sabby32

      Just double-check the product pages for the expiry dates, most of them do not expire though so you can buy them well in advance and hold onto them for as long as you need.

      • sabby32 on 07/03/2023 - 21:06

        Thanks Aidan, will do.

    Hi,

    We're traveling through Japan and Korea for 13 days in total in the coming weeks. Will we need to get the 30-day sim/sim to cover us? Just feels like a bit of a waste as the other option is 12 days

    • Store RepSimsDirect @ SimsDirect on 07/03/2023 - 09:22

      Hey @dmb0312

      Yes, you will need the 30-day SIM for 13 days.

      Hopefully, we can get a wider variety of SIMs in the future.

    I was considering buying the Fiji Sims. We have a 4 night there soon. But I might be better off buying a $2 Telstra sim-only, activating it before flying, then, once in Fiji, buy an international roaming pack in the myTelstra app. Not sure it would work without recharging it here. Does anyone know?

  • dos91 on 07/03/2023 - 11:38

    Hey @SimsDirect
    Planning a trip to the US in May.

    1. Does the unlimited data SIMs with AT&T have any fair use issues or slow down after a certain amount of data?

    2. What's the best coverage? Travelling on the California Zephyr across 7 states, California, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, Nebraska, Iowa and Illinois. Also travelling to Ohio. Would you recommend AT&T or T-Mobile for coverage in these areas?

    Thanks!

      Hey @dos91

      1. AT&T has a de-prioritization threshold of 22GB. This means that in cases of network congestion caused by excessive usage of the 4G data network by their customers in a particular area, if you have already exceeded the 22GB limit, your 4G data speeds may be reduced and dropped to the next available speed, such as 3.5G or 3G. AT&T does this to alleviate network congestion and prevent it from affecting their other customers who have not used as much data.

      2. For coverage; ATT is better for rural coverage as it has more 4G coverage. But T-mobile has pretty much the same coverage in cities and more 5G coverage than ATT. If you really wanted to look into it you could look at their coverage maps on their websites to find out.

      Let me know if you have any further questions! 👍

      • dos91 on 07/03/2023 - 12:15

        Thanks, that's fantastic. Looks like T-Mobile/ultra might be a better option in the end as I see tethering is included and the fair use is 32GB.

        Thanks!

    We are a small group of 3 traveling to France and Italy in April. Do we need to each apply and pay separately for a sim card? I assume that we will be provided with a UK number.

    • Store RepSimsDirect @ SimsDirect on 07/03/2023 - 14:41

      Hey @DORMANI

      You can purchase 3x SIM cards under the same order.

      Yep that's right, the SIMs will have a UK number attached to them.

      -Aidan

      • DORMANI on 07/03/2023 - 15:44

        Just to clarify, with 3 sim purchase each will have there own unique phone number. Is that correct? Also, will they all be required to have the same activation date?

        • Davo1111 on 07/03/2023 - 16:30

          have you ever seen or heard of 3 sims with the same number?

        • Store RepSimsDirect @ SimsDirect on 07/03/2023 - 18:04

          Hey @DORMANI

          Yep that's right, each SIM will have its own unique phone number.

          During checkout, you will be able to select which date you'd like each SIM to be activated.

          Let me know if you have any further questions! 👍

    Bought a physical sim from these people but then bought a new esim capable phone.
    No problem with a full refund and purchase of the replacement esim - thanks great service.
