easySim provides low-cost, prepaid travel eSIMs, which will cut the cost of using your mobile phone when you travel abroad in over 150 countries. No more dodgy WiFi or messing around with fiddly sim cards.
“Easy to use if instructions are followed. The easy sim profile needs to be set to roaming for it to connect even in the UK.
Would appreciate an app to check usage instead of bookmarking the website.”
“Very simple to use and set up. Good instructions were provided. Only draw back was my telephone number didn't work for incoming calls - but I think that was me setting it up wrong on my phone rather than easySim's fault
Would use again in Switzerland :)”
Thank you for your review, Louise! We are glad that our service was easy for you to use and set up and that you found our instructions helpful. Your primary telephone number will not work using our eSIM because we are data only.
“I tested the esim travel simcard in my home country Germany. at the time of testing it offered the best no frills esim deal if you need a moderate amount of data. I got 3gb for 8 Euros for 30 days. I was booked into the vodafone network most of the time, but speeds were rather slow. I am not referring to download speeds, but instead reaction time speeds, despite full signal strength. oh well. What bothered me was that there is seemingly a DNS filtering active that I was not able to influence.
For example, I was not able to use the Edeka app which I use for payment in Edeka supermarkets in Germany. if I switched to wifi or my primary sim card (local Telekom), there was no problem using the app at the same time and location.
All in all okay, for email, surfing, whatsapp etc. but other travel esim providers don't have the mentioned limitations, albeit for a higher price. So it ultimately depends on your priorities.”
Hello Mark, thank you for your kind words about easySim.global!
We are sorry you you were unable to use your Edeka App, we are unaware of any filtering imposed by our networks partners. I have raised a case with the relevant partner and I await their response.
Roaming services can be slower than local services due to increase latency, but the difference is generally not that noticeable, so we will mention this too with our network partner.
We value your feedback and are committed to providing a great experience for all our customers. If there is anything else we can do for you, please don't hesitate to reach out.
Thanks, Chris, for rating easySim.global 4 stars! I'm glad you eventually got the esim to work with no issues after some difficulty. It take a little while to get your head around multiple SIMs, but you soon become an expert. Remember to keep your eSIM for your next trip, but disable it to save battery. Your feedback is highly appreciated.
“It works super well across Europe - was very easy to set things up and start using my data! They have also been really helpful in addressing my questions post-sales. Best wishes”
“The SIM is convenient and easy to use when abroad, the only issue which makes no sense to me, is that you ask users to scan a QR code in order to set up/ activate the SIM. Each time I've bought an easySIM I've done so on my mobile device, as it's the last thing I think of when travelling. If I'm purchasing the SIM with my mobile, how am I expected to scan a QR code with said mobile. The manual installation instructions do not work on my Android device (Google Pixel) and each time I've had to rely on the help of strangers in a new country, by sending them a screenshot of the QR code and scanning it from their phones. As you can imagine, this is not very convenient, especially in a country where you don't speak the local language. It would be helpful to find a better solution.”
Thank you Charne for your 4 star rating of easySIM.global. We are delighted to hear that you have found our eSIM to be convenient and easy to use when abroad.
We understand your frustration with scanning a QR code from the device which receives a QR code, a problem shared with most eSIM providers. This is why we added a "copy" function to help manual configuration. Going manual is a little fiddly, but it is well documented in our Android instructions. Please contact our support if you would like assistance when you next upgrade your phone.
Unlike other eSIM providers, you only need to install your eSIM once, it is yours to keep (as long as you use it occasionally).
We are constantly striving to improve our services and provide our clients with the best and most convenient user experience. Thank you for your helpful feedback and we hope to see you onboard again.
