very bad experience I used and paid attention to monitor many times but very disappointed because I bought a 10gb package but each sim I bought used about 8.65gb then reported it was used up I used the phone data usage measurement app I went on the web to check but the app said it needed a GES code but when I bought there was no GES code to check and I contacted the chat in the app but the response was another package not mine

The price is low but the service is not reliable or consistent. It would only work sometimes, or otherwise, it would be unusable at a crawling slow speed. Try a cheap one-day pass ~$1 to see if it works before committing.

It never worked properly. Not even to receive messages on WhatsApp. I wasted way too much time with the whole procedure for nothing to work. In the end I had to buy a card. run away

First of all, communication is not possible at all.
Then it is difficult to connect to support.
Finally, if the operator cannot solve the problem, they leave the customer alone to avoid getting a bad rating.
In addition, refund policy is ignored.
You should not sign up with this company.
