Reviews & ratings
I bought an eSIM for Europe and it never worked. Customer service does not respond, I lost my money.
Very slow speed and frequent disconnections in Spain. Unusable for work or even browsing.
I had an excellent experience in Japan. Easy installation and stable connection. I used the hotspot without problem.
