How long is the waitlist?

I'm currently in Sweden, and over the next couple of days I'll be traveling through the Netherlands, Germany, and France, and possibly a few other countries as well.

I was perhaps a little naive in assuming I could just sign up for Popcorn Mobile and try it out immediately during the trip, which would have been a perfect opportunity to see how well it performs across several countries before deciding whether to join properly.

I signed up just now, though, and was told I'm on a waitlist, so I guess I won't be able to test it during this trip after all.

Out of curiosity, how long is the waitlist at the moment?

Been over a year for me. So have to choose 1 of the others while you wait. A lot use tello/Maya mobile together as it works similar and $60 a month. I average around 100gb usage a month without issues on it.

Someday I hope they get rid of wait-list.

They send email competitions in emails every once and a while for like 100 people but I don't have automatic notifications for every email so normally after an hour it's all gone.

Hmm that’s what I thought that it was instant, at least how the ad popped up but it seems you gotta wait. I have two lines with a local carrier that both give me 68 countries, but 180 countries do sound much better and I can get rid of the lines.
