I bought the North America 4gb SIM specifically becauase it uses the Rogers network and im going somewhere in Canada with only rogers towers. Guess what? The SIM only works on Bell/Telus and doesnt work on rogers tower. Trying to get a refund but their chat support is slow.
Eskimo eSIM- caution!!
After you install the Eskimo travel eSIM, trial or otherwise and decide to deactivate and close your account. The device can no longer be used again should your sell your smart phone or give to someone else. Quote in the Eskimo Support and email: "You will also not be able to create a new account on the same device in the future." Speeds were 50-90MbpsDL/4-9Mbps UL, not too bad.
Basically, your Android or iPhone device is black listed from future installation by a new user or same owner. SOL in either case.
Due to this condition, I generously gave a 1-Star rate for re-installation that was impossible after deletion and deactivation of 1st time use account even if I were to purchase a plan and scan the original QR code. Not a good way to market the product.
🚫 Definitely not recommended for:
• Shared devices
• People trying to test their service first
• Reuse with new accounts for friends/family
Signed up for them because their website advertises Rogers as provider, and Rogers is the only provider with service in the remote location I travelled to. Upon activating the esim, the provider was actually Telus, and did not work where I was. I contacted PhoneBox to request a transfer to Rogers or a refund, but was denied on both accounts. This company is horrible, customer service is unwilling to help. I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere for a service provider.
a lot of websites and apps did not work. e.g, swarm.
dns did not resolve them. i had to use a vpn additionally.
carriers:
rogers did not connect. telus and bell worked with above limitations.
also, it was LTE for me, not 5G.
The esim would not connect to their partner provider's (Rogers) networks, I spent all day emailing back and forth with breeze customer service trying to get the right apn settings but they were clueless and could only tell me to create an apn and put data.esim into the apn field and nothing else. This did not work. I tried the apn settings that I found on rogers website, but they also did not work.
fyi using a xiaomi 14t which is esim enabled. I followed all of the set up instructions available on Breeze's website.
complete waste of a day.
Follow up with previous comment. Email with barcode sent later.
Data works and the price is lowest for 5GB. If you don't mind immediately activation. And also, so far I don't know how much data is left in my data plan. Location is Ontario.
purchased the 5GB canada esim from esimzon.
The only way to pay is paypal, which is notorious for not easy of refund if getting into trouble.
After I purchase, it seems the esim is immediately activated and I didn't find a place to see the barcode for esim activation.
Is this a scam website?
I've now bought and used 30-40 eSIMs in various countries and some are better than others. But by far, Airhub is the WORST. Did not work at all in some countries that were advertised (Canada/Monaco) and customer support was a bang-your-head against-a-wall situation.
NEVER AGAIN.
I learned the hard way that my phone signal didn’t reach in Canada lol but Breeze came through! It was pretty smooth and internet was very fast, no lag at all. It was a first time experience but will definitely use it next time. S/o to a reddit user who suggested it.
This is a scam. One week into using this, the data stopped working. I was promised a refund and did not get one. DO NOT USE!
I used Jetpac eSim for my family and myself on a two week trip trough USA and Canada and it worked without any hiccups. Deploying the eSim to all mobile phones (iPhones) was no problem and the network was good in all situations. None of us complained about slow network speeds and sometimes the kids turned to the mobile network for gaming instead of slow hotel WiFi. We had to buy a new package once and it was booked directly to the right phone with no issue.
5GB of the 35GB in the year is for social media app. So you know the Hong Kong ISP is able to identify which app you are using.
What I find is that riding share App like Lyft (I didn't try uber) cannot connect to the internet under this esim. I tried it on both iphone and android phone, same issue. Once connected to VPN or airport wifi, the issue will be gone. I guess it's due to Riding share App like Uber/Lyft are illegal in Hongkong. Complained to Mobimatter about this issue. The customer service are quite difficult to follow my debug, give up.
The rest works OK, fastest speed is 4G but enough for me. The rest of internet service went well.
The data service felt slow when I was connected on Rogers 5G. In some areas even though my phone showed connected to the network I couldn't get a data connection.
bought 5GB but after use 3.2GB in the US, the rest of data cannot be used any more. dont't find the support button at that time and it is wasted. the webpage of esim4travel will freeze sometimes.
later bought another US/Canada data plan and it is better because price per GB is higher but compated with another hongkong plan I bought later, it is still too slow in speed. 4G shows and no LTE for no 5G phones in esin4travel esim.
4 stars for customer service and purchase policy: bought an eSim for Canada but can't use in northeast Quebec.
Support troubleshooted and determined its network provider Rogers does not cover the area:
Fully refund the purchase, right away - i meant in couple of hours 😀 good business model.
Will try Breeze again. 👍
First use in EU was ok. Very disappointed this time: bought eSim for Canada but there is no service in northeast of Quebec.
Request a refund but MobiMatter charged $3 usd for processing fund - 30% of the purchase.
The reason: I did not read the fine print that MobiMatter network provider is Rogers and I did not verify that Rogers does not cover the area!!! That's the customers responsibility!!!
This is totally ridiculous. No more MobiMatter. You should think again of using MobiMatter.
Poor reception and response times in USA, totally non-functional in Canada - have had to abandon the service and buy another eSim from a different supplier. Support was responsive but unable to fix or provide a refund. I would not recommend this provider and would not use again.
I bought an eSim for my 21 day vacation, it was a 30gb data plan. 4 days in my vacation and after using only 3.5gb the eSim stopped working out of nowhere. I sent an email to customer service, a message on their app and I tried to contact them any way possible. They take more than 24h hours sometimes 48 hours to answer back to their email. I even answered back to one of their emails 2 mins after they sent one to me and they took 24+ hours to answer back. After 5 days of waiting for them to fix the issue I had to buy another eSim from another company because I needed data to travel. They never figured out the issue and they never want to give me a refund. This was the worst customer service I ever experience! The eSim from AirHub didn't worked for the rest of the trip. NEVER BUY A eSIM FROM AIRHUB!! This is a scam!
Airhub sim worked very poorly in USA, did not work at all in Canada. Support non-existant.
The app is okay. It is easy to get started and has cheap enough prices, but I had a service issue where every time the sim would switch between networks/carriers, I'd lose data service and had to restart the phone every time. It's pretty annoying as I've had to make sure the data is working every few hours, as there is no notification, and just moving around within the town would trigger it.
Very inconsistent service. Most of the time not working at all. Ended up buying a different esim. It was the cheapest option for 3gb over 30 days. Sometimes strangely also not working for specific websites.
Customer service is inexistent.
Tried 3 times, not a single response. Very frustrating.
Voice service is patchy. Does not work on AT&T. Workaround is a voice over data solution for which you need a QR code that is delivered by customer service, if they exist.
So no voice :(
Activation was ok.
I had initial problems setting it up and the online chat support guy was excellent in helping me sort it out.
Bought a 20gb esim voucher. Worked for 1.6gb lost connection. Can’t access data and customer service terrible
During my recent travels to the Canada, I utilized AirHub, and I found it to be a straightforward app to use as long as you follow the provided instructions. I used the eSim feature on my Phone and did not ; I enjoyed fast speed and I didn't face any trouble at any time . Overall, I am satisfied with AirHub's performance and intend to use it again for my next journey.
Not a great experience so far. When the internet works it's fantastic but speed internet has gone down on several occasions at peak times and often mid day when Europe markets are closing. I don't recommend this service one bit! A real lack of consistency with the services..
I live in Canada and wanted to test this provider before I go on vacation. I worked immediately and it showed LTE on my Pixel 6. However, the data rate was very very slow. I ran Ookla and it showed 5M. But when I was at my work place, it showed LTE+ and it was much faster. A few months later, my phone broke and I had to get a replacement. Obvioulsy I was unable to uninstall the profile from my old phone. It was impossible to get the same profile to re-install on the new phone. I worked with customer service for over an hour, they sent me a new profile in QR code but unable to get activated. They sent me another code but this time it wouldn't install. I would just forget about them if I had not already purchased a data plan for Italy. Story to be continued...
