Installed the esim per instructions. Even at the Manas airport i already could NOT connect to the data/service. So i tried activating the esim in the Global Yo app (it is supposed to be automatically activated once I could connect but since I could not connect I thought I would need to activate it manually). Then I tried restarting my phone too but that didn’t work either.
It’s been a few hours and I’ve obviously left the airport now. Even within the city and town there is no service. Only managing to post this review using the guesthouse wifi.
Why sell a product that does not work, and customer service is not 24-7 available to help? I hope when Global Yo does reply I will be in a location that has wifi access to be able to read their reply.
Currently, eSIMDB lists over 80 travel eSIM brands offering service in Kyrgyz Republic (Kyrgyzstan), with a very extensive selection of over 1800 prepaid data plans available. This wide variety of options makes it easy for travelers to find an eSIM that suits their specific data needs and budget.
Several providers offer unlimited data eSIM plans for the Kyrgyz Republic, including Firsty, Yoho Mobile, Roamify, and Yesim. It’s important to note that these plans may have speed limitations or be subject to throttling. Pricing for these unlimited plans generally ranges from approximately $0.00 to $65.00 USD, depending on the provider and the validity period selected.
