Wasted so much time trying to get their plan to work, just to save a few bucks (lesson learned).

I purchased a plan that was meant to work across Oceania for 30 days. Firstly I arrived in Vanuatu, it wouldn't connect at all. I reached out to them, they helped me out to connect, but even after that the connectivity would be randomly lost for up to a day at a time... Then went on to Fiji - it was fine. Now in Samoa, again - no internet whatsoever, this time I reached out to the support, but haven't heard back in 3 days, plan is about to expire anyway.

Do yourself a favour and stick to a more reputable eSIM provider.

Jonused in Fiji 🇫🇯

The setup was fast and smooth and the eSIM worked from the moment I landed in Fiji.

The issue I have is that it was constantly limited to 3G speeds. Even then, although the cellular signal was at full strength, web pages would take aaaaaaages to load or sometimes not load at all.

I reached out to their support team, but it seems the service is limited because it is an eSIM. My mother purchased a physical SIM card from the same local telco that I was using (Digicel) and she got a much better deal (165GBs) with fast LTE speeds at about the same price that I paid for 5GB at 3G speeds.

I understand that the infrastructure here is limited and eSIMs might be a newer technology that needs time to be developed; but I would have appreciated a heads-up when I was purchasing the eSIM so I would’ve at least known I’d only get 3G speeds.

My two cents - if you can wait to buy an eSIM at the airport when you land, please do. They have much better data bundles for tourists.

Can I get a travel eSIM with a phone number and SMS for Fiji?

Yes, travel eSIM plans that provide a phone number and SMS capability for Fiji are available, mainly through GlobaleSIM and Roamify. The data allowances range from 1GB to 20GB and the validity periods span from 7 days to 365 days, with prices starting around $8.50 USD and going up to about $105 USD.

Both providers use dialing codes that are not the local Fiji code (+679); the plans carry numbers in the +1 area code, which is used by Fiji under the North American Numbering Plan, and one Roamify plan uses a +33 code from France. All GlobaleSIM plans offer inbound and outbound voice calls and inbound SMS, while Roamify plans give both inbound and outbound voice and SMS, except where noted. These eSIMs allow you to receive and send text messages and make phone calls while in Fiji but they do not provide a truly local Fiji phone number.
