Travelling with them across europe not first time -
VERY different expirience from competitors because of their soft!! Free music, free movies (!!!), you can even download them and watch over your flight - welcome. Pricing - just use their YOYOs !! No completion on the market.

Very disappointing experience. Despite being in France, I couldn’t access essential AI tools like ChatGPT or Gemini – they simply wouldn’t load. I contacted customer support, but they were unable to resolve the issue. During my vacation, not having access to these services was incredibly frustrating. This might work for basic browsing like Instagram or Maps, but if you rely on more advanced tools, this eSIM is not reliable. One of the worst I’ve used – definitely not recommended for travelers who need stable and unrestricted internet access.

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.

SIM was good until 8.5/10GB used and 10 days into a 30 day validity.

It stopped working after 10 days and refused to give data, even though I emailed support and there was at least 1GB left

- it works well with local providers, 5G
- the app is not that good though, you can’t see you esim data there, only purchase the plan; QR code is being delivered by email so you should have 2 devices to be able to install the eSIM
- the biggest surprise (negative) was the the plan is recurring, with no reminders it just renews for the next 29 days, no option to cancel in the app — need to email the support

I recently traveled to France and used the RedteaGO eSIM package. I was really impressed with the experience. The price was very affordable, and the internet speed was fast. I especially appreciated being able to save money by using the esimdb discount code. It was a great choice for my trip. I highly recommend RedteaGO to anyone traveling to France.

At first ESIM wouldn't install. it was my WiFi which blocked its activation, so I used another WiFi and managed to add the ESIM. then it had no internet access and support helped me:

We recommend configuring our APN by doing the following:
1. Tap Settings
2. Tap Connections
3. Tap Mobile Networks
4. Tap Access Point Names
5. Tap the Menu button
6. Tap New APN.
7. Tap the Name field, write Globalesim
8. Tap the APN field, write internet
9. Leave all other fields empty / blank
10. Tap the Menu icon (3 dots)
11. Tap Save
After, please restart your phone giving it several minutes in order to allow it to properly reconnect to a network.

Pretty good experience overall, the internet breakouts mentioned in their data plan are accurate. One issue I encountered was when switching between network it takes a minutes to few minutes to get a connection back.

The internet works fine. However, I was never informed about the amount of the fee I agreed to pay on top (it was almost 10% which is quite substantial). 5 star for the internet, 1 star for the (missing) transparency.

Save even more if you switch currency to GBP and then use esimdb3off. Get 3 GBP off instead of 3 USD or 3 CAD. I got a 5GB esim for europe for 30 days for 2.50 GBP or about $4.50 CAD.

At first I was very sceptical of this service never ever having hearing of it. With all the sales it made the purchase price cheaper than competitors. I used it in Europe and Asia. Full 5G coverage. Data lasted. Worked very well. Just amazing how easy it was to set up and use. I'll definitely be using it again when I travel next.

I wouldn't recommend this provider. The network worked occasionally, but it was very unreliable. Even in downtown Rome, the internet would sometimes just stop working. It didn't work at all in a small village in France. My sister, who had bought a physical SIM card, saved us multiple times. It's frustrating not to have internet when you need it for traveling, especially when you've paid for it.

Worked great in France. I had great coverage in Paris and Lille. It was solid enough for FaceTime audio calls (I didn't try video). Also was great for a bit of tethering. Poor service in the countryside on the train, but my understanding is all providers have issues with that in France.

Generally, sporadic. You get what you have paid for. In the following locations, you get very slow to non coverage:
Paris Orly airport
Florence Uffizi Galleria (2nd floor)
Florence IL Recetario restaurant
FLORENCE TIANTIANHONG Restaurante
Florence GiaoGiao restaurant
FLORENCE Hotel Cimabue 1st floor room 112
And so on and so forth.
Have contacted support, followed instructions to connect to specific networks, turned off wifi, restart phone, etc., nothing improves.
It's just too cheap to behave.
But to be honest, it worked well on open areas like on a road, outside a building. So using map on a road is perfect for this eSIM.

I have to say, I was a little hesitant about making the switch to an eSIM an decided to go for it for my long trip to France (6 months), but I am so glad I did! The transition was a breeze and the customer service team walked me through every step of the process and it litteraly takes 1 minutes to install if you follow the instructions.. Not to mention, I have never experienced such an amazing network coverage (Paris area and south west of France in Bordeaux). Plus, the internet speed is lightning fast, making it perfect for all my streaming needs. The eSIM feature has been a game changer for me, with the added convenience of being able to switch between devices without having to constantly change SIM cards

Excellent speed on Android. Used in France, Switzerland, and Germany. Big problem though. You lose internet access when changing country. Even after phone reset, internet does not come back until you connect to a WiFi hotspot. Inconvenient when on the road. Also, teetering (shared connection) never properly worked. Use another provider if you travel to different countries or if you need to share a connection.

do not waste your money on this e-sim
I bought a esim, and activated it, I thought that was it.
they don't say that in some countries you must register your details before using it
so I tried to register my details but it was in a foreign language, and the registration site did not respond, eventually I gave up
the customer support is terrible as you can expect from a Chinese base company
they refused to refund even though 0 bytes were used

Bought 10gb for 30 days for France. I have been given a Polish number instead of a French +33 number and the speeds are less than 1mb/s, so ridiculously slow and barely useful for data roaming. When contacting them for help they replied by getting my name wrong and telling me to enable data roaming… as if I hadn’t had thought of that before?
