“Terrible company. Scammers! I highly recommend not using them! I got an eSIM for India. I set everything up according to the instructions. But the SIM won't connect to any carrier! Support said they'd help me within 24 hours, but three days later, they haven't responded. My vacation was already over, so I asked for a refund. After much persuasion, they said it would be returned in 2-3 days. It's been 9 days now, and I still haven't received a refund! Support hasn't helped at all. They simply stole my money.”

“data roaming worked somehow but there is no support.
There is mentioned to postpone the start but it was impossible. When I tried to contact support, no help, no answer. It was last time I used this company. Never again. I cannot recommend.”

“Do not recommend. The esim did not work at all. It connected to the country’s network but cellular data did not start. Scam.”

“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.”

Airalo India

“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.”

MobiMatter Pakistan

“I am currently in Pakistan. I am using Mobimatter 17GB, 365days Asia Pacific plan. If I trust my ipad bar, signal is very strong, but I cannot see even a small web page. 4 out of 5, it fails, even when it succeed , it takes many minutes to download a simple page. Please find what is the problem. Is it because of this region(Hunza)? Because in china, it was OK. But I don't think you can call Pakistan service area, if the service quality is this low.”

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

Yes, travel eSIMs that include a phone number and SMS support are available for South Asia from Roamify. Their plans provide inbound and outbound voice calls, as well as inbound and outbound SMS, but the numbers use the dialing code +1, which is a foreign code and not local to any South Asian country. Consequently, the phone number is not a local South Asian number.
