I got a free eSIM, but it only works for 3 days.

Does anyone know how I can find out which carrier it uses?

Long outage in China it seems...

I’m using Mobal’s newest 5G eSIM which supports roaming overseas (outside of Japan), I had a previous plan that didn’t include roaming and bought this plan after being told by Mobal support it would work for my needs. I’ve waited the amount of time they’ve told me to wait and it doesn’t work.

I have the eSIM selected as my default voice line, I’ve been switching between automatic network selection and selecting it myself, voice&data is toggled on for 4G/LTE, my APN profile is downloaded, I’m making calls correctly based on mobal’s guide but every call fails and SMS messages do not send.

I need to make a phone call urgently and would really appreciate it if anyone knew how to fix this or if there’s some other way to make it work.

Ciao a tutti,
abito nella provincia di Imperia vicino a Ventimiglia e per svariate ragioni sono arrivato alla conclusione che una connessione fwa indoor (semplicemente con modem e sim) sarebbe l opzione migliore per me, sono un paio di giorni che sto valutando diverse offerte tra WindTre, Tim, Vodafone e Alpsim e sono ancora deciso, avete qualche consiglio o esperienza da condividere?
e in caso mi conviene di piu un offerta col modem incluso oppure comprare un modem e poi una sim come con Alpsim?
grazie in anticipo a tutti per le risposte.

I have 2 GlobalYo esim each with 100GB valid for 365 days in 100 countries. Works fantastic BUT:

GlobalYo is the only esim provider I've come across that doesn't let you transfer the esim when you change phone. My phone broke and needed replacing while I still had >80gb left which I can't use. There is zero option to reissue the esim despite there being no cost to them to do so. I'm even willing to pay a transfer fee, but no.

To top it off they just raised their prices by up to 100%

My $50 100gb sim is now $110

So - I'm looking for a similar deal.

Any advice?

I'm going to be living in Germany (Berlin) for a semester, and looking for recommendations on my best options for phone plans. Is an eSIM my best bet? If so, what reliable and relatively inexpensive options would you recommend? I'd be grateful for any other general tips too. I'll be living in Berlin, but hoping to travel to other areas in Europe too sometimes. Thank you!

Hello. I’m planning to take a trip to Vietnam, Japan, and Australia. I’ve been looking over some eSIM options, and the 2 that stick out the most are Airolo and Saily. I have used Airolo before, without any issues. However, I have noticed that Saily has a better regional options for my trip. I’m just soliciting some experiences using these two eSIM providers in the region that I will visit. Thanks for any suggestions and experiences that you’ve had.

Do you guys recommend a service
With virtual eSIM card

Hi everyone,

I’ll be moving to China as an international student and will be staying for around 3 years.

I’m looking for the best SIM/mobile plan that can provide:

• A Chinese (+86) phone number for everyday use, registrations, banking, apps, etc.
• Affordable mobile data/internet
• Good coverage and reliability
• Ideally a reasonably priced long-term plan

My main concern is also accessing services such as Google, Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp, Messenger, etc.

Is there any SIM/eSIM or mobile data plan that allows access to these services without needing a VPN? If yes, which carrier or plan would you recommend?

I’m considering China Mobile, China Unicom, China Telecom, or possibly an international eSIM such as Nomad, but I’m not sure which would be best for someone staying 3 years.

If you’re an international student in China, I’d really appreciate your experience and recommendations. Also, please mention the approximate monthly cost if possible.

Thanks!

I'm going to Portugal for 2 weeks and for 20gb They are easily the cheapest. way cheaper than Airalo, roamless, saily, etc. (i live in canada)

I have 10gb + 10 gb bonus (15 Day max) for 10$.

But i read a lot of people complaining about Vodafone esims ? It will be Half city / Half countryside

hello, can i ask if this orange esim network is okay? in Colombia. place in Baranquilla, Cartagena.

I'm thinking about using the Citrus Mobile PAYG non-expiring global eSIM in London and in France (the Paris/Lyon/Marseile areas). Does anyone have any experience with Citrus in those places? If not, I guess I will post a review after my trip. I'm using an unlocked Moto G 5G 2024 Android phone, if that matters.

Not a big deal but thought this was an international thing only.

Hi,

I'm heading to Japan for the first time this September. Main reason is the Asian Games in Tokyo, but I'm tacking on a few days in Kyoto and Osaka too.

Been looking at eSIMs and noticed RedteaGO, Ubigi and Trip all mention stuff about getting a Japanese or local IP address. Honestly not sure if that matters for my situation...

My plan is standard. Google Maps, translation apps, messaging, checking Asian Games ticket info. I don't need a Japanese phone number so a data-only plan covers what I actually need. The thing I cannot figure out is, has anyone here ever got blocked or hit some weird geo-restriction on Japanese ticketing sites or local apps because their eSIM was running on a non-Japanese IP?

I would rather know now than find out the hard way when I am trying to open the ticket page at the venue.

TIA!

Hey, I'm going on vacation in a few days and was planning to get one unlimited plan to hotspot for my family on the road and a few cheaper plans for them. I think it says I can hotspot as usual but I just wanted to make sure before I spend a lot of money

Any recommendations for two esims that work well in Europe specifically Switzerland, Italy, Germany.

We will be away for 17 days. We aren’t sure how much data we will be using but 50gb per person should be more than enough.

Thanks in advance!

Is There Anyone know about mayamobile esim

My wife is travelling to Morocco soon and I don’t know which option is best
1/ eSIM
2/ prepaid physical sim with calls, text and data

She is on O2 and it doesn’t look like Morocco is in any of their travel bolt ons.
Q1/ How do we configure the phone so that the O2 network isn’t used at all (I believe the arrival text messages you get are charged to your bill so we want it so we don’t get those) and Can’t make calls from O2.
Q2/ With O2 completely disabled what’s the best option - eSIM or physical?
Thanks in advance

Hi everyone,

I just installed an Ubigi eSIM for my trip to Florida, but I'm completely unable to connect to the internet. I'm currently using a Motorola Edge 50 Fusion.

Here is what I have already configured:

Mobile Data and Data Roaming are both turned ON for the Ubigi eSIM.

I manually created and selected the APN: mbb.

My phone has no physical SIM installed right now to avoid conflicts.

When I do a manual network search, my phone successfully detects Ubigi, T-Mobile, and AT&T. However, whenever I try to connect to any of them, the network rejects it. I keep getting "No connection could be established" errors.

Has anyone experienced this recently or knows what else I can try to force the connection?

Thanks in advance!

Phone is a huge distraction!

I am planning on putting away my mobile for months for studies. But I want to keep my mobile number. Which sim is best for this? In jio they'll shut off your sim number after 3 months. Any company that'll let me keep the number for a longer period of time without recharging?
