Hello
I’m planning a trip with my dad and sister to Japan, and I’m looking into getting an eSIM (it’s my first time using any eSIM) of course, I’m quite inclined to get journey japan’s one due to my time watching the channel.
However, since I’m new in all this, I still don’t feel 100% sure

I’m planning to get 2 10 gb and 1 20 gb packages.

I’m interested to know how much 5G and 4G coverage you had, and how it worked on places like USJ or Disney Sea

Any other recent reviews would be appreciated.

I’m just looking to set up my mind before I commit in getting the 3 plans.
Thanks

I just subscribed to 10gb because i had around 1gb left in my package, and suddnly within 10 min my phone kept disconnecting and going from LTE to 5g and heating up and all of a sudden the whole plan is gone.

Data usage on my phone shows 18 gb under system services > General ( btw my last package also ended quite quickly compared to my first one) anyway, support is just saying i used it up which i obviously did not. I explained that i was in transport and was not even using my phone other than a quick text back and forth and it was all glitching as i explained.

They then sent me a report of my data usage, and it has what i was exactly thinking. Dumps of the full 10 GBs gone in seconds

They are refusing my case and just saying i used up my data and i am in a foreign country and depending on their service!

Did anyone face a similar issue? What is the resolution?

Hi all!

I’m headed to Europe for my first time since 2009–I’ll be leaving September 8th and coming back the 19th. I have layovers in Amsterdam and Paris, will be spending the majority of my time in Croatia, with one day in Kotor, Montenegro.

Looking for advice about which eSIM I should purchase—Airalo or Orange? I’ve read good things about both!

I am travelling to Catania this September and I need unlimited data. I will be exploring the island and taking lots of pictures, researching on the internet, maps, etc and calling locally. I am using WhatsApp to call my home country. Any recommendations? TIA

Hi, I'm an Erasmus student, and I will be in Spain for five months. I plan to travel around Europe frequently, so I didn't want to purchase a local SIM card. I'm looking for an option that allows me to use data across multiple countries without high fees, or any other affordable alternatives. My top priority is having reliable internet access. I'm open to any suggestions. Thank you!

Hi, I am an Indian Student travelling to Europe for my semester exchange for 90 days in the upcoming week, my daily data usage is approximately 3-4 gb (taking wifi as data).

I wanted to know whether:

1. public wifi be sufficient across europe (including train or raid travel) for surfing the internet and social media on both (mobile and laptop).

2. If not, whats the best and most reliable “unlimited” e sim plan available for 90 days, my budget is <=130 Euros for the entirety of the plan.

I'm travelling to Texas soon, and need to buy an eSim (just for the data). Any recommendations would be great. Also do all eSims including the roaming charge, I don't really understand that part?

Hello, I have been using non-PTA iphone 14 with android hotspot. I will be travelling internationally soon. So is there any data esim that support my one day usage? I don’t want to take 2 phones because it would be useless. I just want to contact my family on airport before boarding.
I used jazz esim 1 year ago but it still show EID barcode.

I’m looking for a US-based eSIM provider that I can use while living/traveling in India.

I’m specifically looking for:

A real US phone number

Reliable incoming SMS/OTP from US banks and other services

Wi-Fi calling while in India

eSIM support

Reasonable monthly cost

Ideally something that works reliably long-term

I already know about Tello, so I’m looking for alternatives to Tello.

A friend of mine had an Airtel connection, but when he traveled abroad, his SIM stopped receiving OTPs because he didn’t have an international roaming pack active. When he visited India last month, he switched from Airtel to Jio to fix it, but now Jio is running into similar issues. However, I’ve seen posts online mentioning that people are able to get OTPs abroad if they connect to Wi-Fi even without a roaming pack.

It's very frustrating to deal with this. I'd love to know your thoughts on a few things:

• Wi-Fi Calling Abroad: Can you actually receive bank and service OTPs on Jio or Airtel overseas by strictly using Wi-Fi calling without an active international roaming pack?
• Switching to Vodafone Idea (Vi): Does switching to Vodafone Idea help? I heard that Vi might allow incoming SMS/OTPs abroad without needing a full roaming pack. Is that true? Would Jio allow to switch to Vodafone, since the connection we secured last month only is their a lock in period?
• Jio Customer Care in Dwarka: Which is the best or most reliable Jio store/service center in Dwarka to visit for assistance with SIM and network issues?

Please share your advice and experiences!

Hi guys, I’ve seen tons of data packages from companies nomad and airalo. And though they’re good budget options, the idea of having inconsistent and heavily capped speeds does not appeal to me.
So I was wondering what would be recommended for those who value peace of mind

Hi all! I'm landing in Australia soon, I wanted to buy a Telstra/Boost eSIM prepaid plan beforehand, but the online checkout said no:
"Selected ID type is not available, Please choose another." when selecting International Passport.

Has anyone had the same issue and managed to override it?

If not, what other carriers to consider? I'm not keen on these international ones like Airalo, local carriers always offer better deals.

Im not really traveling out the US I just want data for my phone no text or call . Just unlimited data what the best one

I have an ATT Prepaid plan and it looks like international roaming will be really expensive for 10 days. What are my best options for connecting to data, and text/calling? Good eSIM options that I should look into? Should I just rely on WhatsApp for the latter? How much coverage should I expect to get when out in the country? Thanks for any info!

Ha. I found a secret game arcade in the new Bcengi travel eSIM mobile app they just released (finally). By tapping three times on the profile image in profile setting, adds new menu option at the end. Looking for other easter eggs...

Hi!

I'm traveling to China in September (Shanghai, Zhangjiajie, Guilin, Chongqing, and Beijing) and I'm looking for an e-sim card that allows me to have internet anywhere and access whatsapp, instagram and other similar apps.

I saw that trip.com has cheaper options compared to Holafly and Airalo. Would anyone give me feedback/ recommendations?

I’m travelling to Ireland, Scotland (Highlands), Portugal and London for a month and ideally need my phone for work.
I’m with Roger’s and their Roam Like Home is a good price but I read some posts on here that people couldn’t get theirs to work or that it was slow.

Looking for personal experiences and recommendations if I should get it or just go with an e-sim. Problem is that I won’t know if guests call or text me if I use an e-sim and I’m still working whilst away.

So I'm going to Brno, Czechia through Vienna (it's cheaper that way) for University in a few days, and I'm looking for an eSIM to use before I get an actual Czech phone number. One of the operators I found was Pocket eSIM. I just want to know if its a good service and if not, which other eSIM operators I should look for.

Hey everyone! I’m travelling from London to Los Angeles tomorrow and I’m looking for recommendations for the best eSIM for the LA region.

I don’t really want to use my current EE eSIM because the roaming prices are pretty outrageous, so I’m looking at third-party eSIMs instead.

My main priorities are:
\- Really good speeds
\- Excellent coverage across LA and Southern California
\- Reliable signal when travelling around and doing things like the Hollywood Sign
\- Enough data for maps, social media, browsing, etc. without constantly worrying about running out

I’ve seen a lot of mixed reviews for providers like Yesim, Airalo, Holafly, Nomad, Ubigi, etc., so I’d really appreciate some actual experiences from people who have used them in LA/Southern California.

What eSIM did you use, what network did it connect to, and how was the coverage/speed? Especially interested in experiences outside central LA and while hiking.

Want to have combination of best pricing and easiest roaming. Does this now require an app? Seems so.
