Service is OK, but update policy is outdated. Modern travellers only need Bitebird-like services every now and then, and shouldn't be forced to update/recharge anually without use!

I have had a Bitebird for more than 10 years. It had worked fine for that time, expense in the U.S. but it worked. I returned to the U.S. from Europe at the end of April 2023 (to San Francisco). The device has not worked since I have been in California (for one month now) and B.B's "technical support" (boy, what an oxymoron that is) has done absolutely nothing beyond sending me a new SIM card (which doesn't work either)and a dozen or so automated canned responses to my heated messages over this period of time. I rely on the device for secure internet when traveling (which I do a lot of) and it does not work anymore anywhere in the state of California. B.B. staff were so lame as to suggest that I go "...to different areas of the state to see if it works". Just from regular travel I have been to four different areas of the state (far from each other) and guess what, it doesn't work ANYWHERE! So here I sit with approximately $50.00 of credit on my account for a device that I cannot use. What a croc!
So if you think that you have a B.B. and it's going to work for you in California, you'd better think again, and let me tell you, you WILL GET ABSOLUTELY NO HELP, JUST REDUNDANT A.I. GIBBERISH FROM "TECHNICAL SUPPORT"IT'S A JOKE THAT IS NONE TOO FUNNY.

I have had Bitebird for some years and whilst I mainly use it when in Europe, it is increasingly used when in meetings with no secure Wi-Fi, when visiting elderly relations who do not have Wi-Fi and as a back up when there is a power cut at home.

Cost too much

I have been using Bitebird for several years. Last time, I charged it for 25 € to use it in Panama. I just used Google maps and Uber and everything was gone in less than 2 days... It's way too expensive for what it's worth.

Dear Hervé,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

The Bitebird offer is designed for travelers and frequent travelers. The rates are different following the country but they are always much cheaper than usual ROAMING costs applied by providers when you are abroad.

In order to save more of your credit, we advise you to switch OFF your Bitebird when you do not use it, and this will avoid that updates and all applications (from your phone/tablet/laptop) stay always connected, using all your credit without you realizing it.

Before you travel, you can check all our rates (from 0,01€/MB) on the following page so that you know which data plan will suit best your usage for your next travel:

Was good before

Purchased a credit of 25.00 Euros and was suppose to get 5.00 Euros for free, but only got 25.00 Euro credit. Used the Bitebird for only 7 minutes in Hawaii and the whole 25.00 Euro credit was used up! Emailed for help and heard nothing back. When I first purchased Bitebird 4 years ago it was very good up to now. Not sure what has happened with them.

Its the ideal companion to international travel, specially when arriving at foreign airports and needing to immediately send a text. A pity that the world has changed so much that I keep my device charged up and in a drawer.
Fingers crossed for the next overseas holiday when Bitebird will once again be active.

Good service

Good service. Some places a little expensive. I use it while traveling which nowadays is less often, so expiration time is unfair if you put money into it

Dear Max,

Thank you for your feedback. When you top-up your account (even with the smallest data plan), the expiry date of your whole credit is extended with 1 year again. So do not hesitate to recharge your account now for your future travels to keep your remaining credit valid.

Do not hesitate to contact our customer service for more information on your remaining credit if needed:
