Easy to use and worked a treat
Excellent product - the SIM worked as expected in Japan
We were happy with the SIM and the purchase. Thank you!
Great coverage
It activated on the correct date, easy to install and purchase. Has given us great coverage across Hong Kong and Japan
Happy with the price
Happy with the price for calls, texts and data. Had a bit of trouble in activating it on arrival in NZ, as tapping the QR code in the email wasn’t working for me. However I persevered and got connected after 5-10 minutes. No issues since.
Travel Sim
The sim arrived , I put it in my phone just prior to arrival and upon arriving it just kicked in and worked perfectly
Seamless to connect
It was seamless to use when I landed in Japan. Hadn't even transferred between Sims but I was connected.
Was concerned with whether I had 20GB as phone was giving me my usage and then indicated I only had 2GB. Alvin answered my questions quickly and confirmed I had 20GB
I'm very happy with the service I got…
I'm very happy with the service I got for my physical simcard. Even if you put the activation date 1 day before using you can still activate it when you arrive in the country you've put for the simcard. Help support is really good! And I would recommend to many others going outside of the country.
Great value and great service on Travel SIMs
Good value, easy to order and quick delivery of physical SIMs via post or eSim info via email. Set up instructions work really well and when my technical skills let me down, Alvin, the travel Sim specialist answers emails really fast to sort me out. I am a very happy customer.
Helpful and efficient service…
Alvin was extremely helpful and quickly guided us to fix the problem.
Didn't let us down!
This is the second time we've used Prepaidsims in Japan. Our phones are not compatible with eSims so we use a physical sim card. They are excellent value and started working as soon as we switched our phones on. They also provided excellent coverage throughout our travels. We wouldn't hesitate to use them again or recommend them to others.
It does what’s on the label
It does what’s on the label! Automatically recognises you’re in a covered country and instantly connects you to the best available network. Have been using it for several years and recommended it to friends and people I meet. I hope it works for people who want to buy it outside Australia.
It is reliable
It is reliable. I didn't encounter any time of interruption due to data issue. What I hope for further service is to have a local phone number, which I understand would cost more. Thank you.
Easy to set up and get started when we…
Easy to set up and get started when we arrived in Vietnam.
Useful to have Sim Card ready to install on arrival
Good to have a New Zealand Sim Card to install once we arrived in NZ, saved having to find one on arrival and not knowing where to go.
To have notification the balance was running low would have been good as we were caught up in an emergency situation and then had to spend critical time loading more funds using our Travel Card,
Great coverage and service
Great coverage and service. Been through north and south of the US. No problems. Easy activation.
Super easy to set up
Super easy to set up. First time using an esim on my iPhone 15 Pro and it was a breeze. When we landed, we got on the airport wifi and scanned the QR code. This installed the esim and it connected straight away.
Esims were easy to buy and work perfectly
Esims work excellent all over uk and europe. Would definitely buy them again.
Will NEVER use e-sims again!!
Just returned from a month travelling Asia... Indonesia, Hong Kong, Vietnam and Singapore. Our Asia Prepaid sims didn't miss a beat! Activated them on arrival in Indonesia, kept them installed till we left Singapore. Our prepaid sims instantly worked at soon as we landed in the country... we didn't have to do any adjustments. We have previously tried e-sims and apart from complicated activation procedures, we never once got them to work! With Prepaidsims installation and activation was so simple. Install sim, change roaming and you're done.
Even with data only my wife and I were able to communicate through WhatsApp very successfully in all the countries.
Prepaidsim will be our communication choice from now on. ♥️ it!
