Used without issues in both Tokyo and Osaka. The latency wasn't great due to roaming connection through Singapore, but was manageable. At least it’s more convenient than eSIMs that go through Hong Kong and don’t work with services like ChatGPT. The network was au’s LTE or 5G, and signal was solid everywhere, no complaints.
TERRIBLE !
THIS IS A SCAM WEBSITE!!
dont buy from them, they send me an expired QR code and when I asked them why they asked me if my phone was manufactured in China. I have an iPhone which is stated as supported in their website and sure it's manufactured in China.
They sent me a link saying that phones PURCHASED in China are not supported. I bought my Phone in the UK and they say that since the device is not manufactured there they will keep my money. The QR Never worked
Used this eSIM during my trip to Japan — it was smooth, convenient, and worked perfectly the whole time. Definitely a must-have for travelers!
I went with this esim because of the great value and because I saw a positive review (after having tried a couple esims in the past with various companies that barely worked, I'm always a bit apprehensive to try one without and positive reviews) and I just wanted to second that review - airlink worked perfectly throughout Korea (have been connected to SK network the whole 3 weeks) and when considering price per GB, I doubt there are many better options.
Excellent experience, very good coverage, easy use and seamless operation.
Excellent experience, very good coverage, easy use and seamless operation.
Good value but connectivity sketchy outside of major metropolitan areas
Always seamlessly effective! I always love using Travelgator eSIM simply becux it works like a charm every single trip! No need to swap out physical eSIM card and my internet connection is always strong.
The internet worked perfectly everywhere – airports , even on road trips. No annoying "loading..." screens! Plus their customer chat is LEGIT. Messaged them at 1AM (jetlag lol) and replied in 2 minutes. She literally stayed on chat while I set it up, double-checked everything. Way cheaper than my phone plan back home. Never going back to regular SIM cards!
I used it in February this year in Dubai, and it worked well for me during my three‑day stay. While many claimed some providers didn’t work there, others insisted they did. Definitely will be using it again at the end of this year for work.
Unfortunately, the SIM card was very unreliable in Australia. Despite having full 4G/5G signal, we often had to wait several minutes for websites to load. There are definitely better SIM card options available for Australia.
Service blocked and no refund
Bought a 30gb 30 day Esim for South Africa.
One week and 8 GB later, I go to bed. Wake up and there's no connection.
Complained to costumer service and they said my account has been blocked for misuse by the carrier. Overnight. While I slept.
They said they got in touch with them and would let me know the outcome.
I said I don't care about the outcome. I need my phone to work. So I buy an Esim from another company and asked for a refund. It's been 4 days.
I complained on Trustpilot, they answered asking for my details and never heard back.
Now this is my assumption of what's happening:
1. Airhub resells Vodafone UK eSIMs, but possibly without Vodafone’s full awareness of their intended use (i.e. roaming-only, global travel).
• Airhub is likely operating as a mobile virtual network enabler (MVNE) or reseller — meaning they bulk-buy access from Vodafone or a Vodafone-affiliated wholesaler.
• Vodafone UK may see your connection from abroad (e.g. South Africa) as suspicious or misuse, especially if it looks like permanent roaming or violates their “fair use” or “roaming abuse” policies.
2. Vodafone might have automatically blocked your line due to what it considers “abuse” (long-term roaming with no UK usage).
• Many carriers — especially in the EU and UK — have policies against continuous roaming without using the SIM domestically.
• If the system flags your usage as “not compliant” (i.e. you’re using a UK SIM exclusively outside the UK), it can trigger an automatic suspension.
3. Airhub is likely stalling because they don’t have control over Vodafone’s systems and may be worried about chargebacks, contract violations, or getting dropped as a reseller.
⸻
This theory supports my case because:
• I did nothing wrong — used a product sold as a “travel eSIM.”
• If Airhub is selling Vodafone eSIMs for global use without Vodafone’s systems recognizing it as such, that’s a reseller-side misconfiguration, not my fault.
• I am entitled to a refund regardless of their internal arrangement — they sold you something they couldn’t properly support.
I purchased two Bosnia and Herzegovina (HT Eronet) - 10GB/30Days eSIM packages. The pre-installation process was smooth, but activation at the border wasn’t as trouble-free. Throughout the trip, I often had no internet connection. At one rest stop, I noticed the phone had latched onto the MTEL network instead of Eronet. I tried switching manually, experimented with both automatic and manual APN settings (using the official Eronet APN), but none of it helped—the issue remained the same: sometimes there was internet, sometimes there wasn’t.
Once we arrived in Mostar, things got a bit more stable, but even there the connection frequently dropped—at our accommodation too, for instance. My wife (using a Motorola; I have a Honor) kept pointing out that we had no internet again.
Speed wasn’t an issue when it did work, but I’d recommend going with BH Telecom instead—whenever Eronet failed, my other SIM on BH Telecom had full signal. In some cases, the only way to reconnect was to disable and re-enable the eSIM entirely.
It’s a typical scam - don’t use it.
I had issue from beginning.
First I couldn’t install it and they told me I need to be in the destination country.
Later after reaching destination country it was still not working.
I spent like TWO HOURS with them on support chat and they didn’t help and they don’t want to give me my money back.
Strongly not recommend - use anything else but not that.
At first there were problems with activation, it took several hours.
I used eSIM for 2 weeks. Internet works only in the center of large cities, on the outskirts and in small towns the connection completely disappears, or is very, very slow. Support does not respond.
They no longer issue eSIMs from Webbing, with the internet breakout being Webbing's servers in Dallas, TX. They now issue eSIMs from Drei (3 Austria), with the internet breakout being Working Group Two's servers in the UK near London. In addition to that, it seems Drei's roaming agreements with Verizon has a lower priority QCI level compared to Plus and Webbing, and so this isn't the best option for me anymore.
Experience was really bad. APN was not provided, so I waited it 2 hours from support.
As soon as I started using "unlimited" 128 kpbs internet eSIM was blocked and marked is expired in app.
WARNING! This eSim Provider will throttle your data! Bought 100GB/20Days and got throttled after 9-10GB. Support not answering, terrible experience overall.
Connects to 4g of Orange, but speed is very low, more like 2g. Not worth the money
Nine hours, no QR code, no support, no refund, not even an e-mail from a real person, nothing. Ripoff. I hate to admit it, but I’ve been scammed. How do you allow these scammers to be here? Are you in on it, too?
The speed is horrible. Speed at 10 Mbps - 500 GB is useless at this speed
purchased the 5GB canada esim from esimzon.
The only way to pay is paypal, which is notorious for not easy of refund if getting into trouble.
After I purchase, it seems the esim is immediately activated and I didn't find a place to see the barcode for esim activation.
Is this a scam website?
Very good service, sometime switch to 4G but speed is good . We can switch operator and find 5G is need. Price is very low
As others are writing, SIM cards get blocked without providing any valid reason. I was told I had used the SIM in a country I was hundred of kilometers away. Clearly they are lying. They are fraudsters. I hope they go to jail for this fraud.
it barely worked, I mainly could use it for apple car play for everything else I had to wait to be in wifi for it to be usable, whatsapp didn't work well, disney app didn't work either, photos app, or searching anything in google was super slow
I never recieve my QR code. Lost so many minutes to contact, look like a scam. Paypal refund will be issued.
Was recently in Egpyt and had no issue with GoMoWorld. Also promocode worked. Recommended
Can’t activate, seems like a scam as just gives an error all the time like the previous review.
The selected subscription with GoMobile is a disaster. I never got an connection to the internet. The abo was active, but even with etisalat by e& 4G, not with the slower etisalad by e& 3G, it was possible to write any whatsApp, email or check a website.
The last year, with a data package from our local provide i got everytime Internet with etisalat. I would never choose a subscription with goMobile again.
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.
The speeds are decent, but the IP is from Hong Kong so the latency is quite high. And most importantly, ChatGPT cannot be used unfortunately.
Price was very good, installation was easy and everything worked after setting up the APN. Speed was also good (see speedtest image).
The network showed as "IIJ" which operates on the NTT docomo network. It had coverage almost everywhere except once for about 5 minutes, no big deal.
Top-up was easy but only possible in the app, not the website.
Would definitely recommend and use again!
coverage was very good, easy setup at public wifi spot upon arrival. One major thing though: internet breakout is Hong Kong.
There is no instagram coverage (anymore) in Hong Kong!
If you plan to use this operator, you should be aware of this.
Very bad. Do not buy this esim for UAE! No internet most of time. One time I have connection - result of Speedtest is very bad - 0.3Mbps! See in attachment. Support did not retun money! They tried to debug the problem from tecnical side with my help for about 2 hours - with no result. Very bad experience.
I repeat - do no buy this esim for UAE and maybe for other countries.
I recently purchased this international eSIM for my trip to the UAE, and I am beyond impressed! The setup was quick and hassle-free
I was connected within minutes.
The 5G coverage was outstanding.
If you're traveling to the UAE and need fast, reliable, and affordable data, this eSIM is a perfect choice. Highly recommended!
10/10 - Will definitely use again!
Does not work on my unlocked Pixel phone. Support couldn't give me any answer. Ended up buying from Bytesim and that worked instantly.
Sim does not work for data in Korea. They also claim 24/7 support but they haven’t been online for the last 6 hours. Avoid company, I was left without any internet access when I landed and had to scramble poor free wifi to buy a different eSIM.
They still have not refunded me going to have to file a charge back. Avoid at all costs
تم خصم مبلغ الاشتراك ولم يتم ارسال ايميل بالاشتراك، وتواصلت مع خدمة العملاء وكانو يتاخرون في الرد ولا يقدمون المساعدة المطلوبة ويتم تكرار . طلب البيانات وفي النهاية قامو باغلاق طلب المساعدة بخجة اني تأخرت 15 دقيقة في الرد. كانت تجربة مخيبة للامال
The QR code didn't work and after a few emails they issued a new code. After enabling the card and used for a few hours, it got disabled. Every time the support would ask for a lot of useless information.
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
I learned the hard way that my phone signal didn’t reach in Canada lol but Breeze came through! It was pretty smooth and internet was very fast, no lag at all. It was a first time experience but will definitely use it next time. S/o to a reddit user who suggested it.
- 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
This is an update of my review. In the end I did receive the eSIM via the support chat.
Fraud, payment was accepted but eSIM was not shown. They wrote in the support chat that they sent it to the email address (where the receipt was received), and after a while stopped replying
the experience was terrible. SCAM!!!!!!!
and when i texted them they just kept tell me to wait for ever!!!!!!
Doesn't work! Waste of money! I was only able to see if it works after arriving in Japan in March '25, but I never got connected when automatic carrier selection is on. I chatted with the BNESIM support and was told to select KDDI manually. After that I was able to get connected, for no more than 2 mins each time in a series of unsuccessful attempts. I then chatted with the support again. This time they said this case will be escalated to the advanced team and I'd be hearing from them within 24 hrs. Yes, you're right! The never responded to me afterwards! Sadly speaking, this is the second time I run into the same situation with them. I bought another esim in 10 mins from EIOTCLUB and I got continuous, stable connection ever since. So which one is the scam?
I purchased my Esim and it give me my Qrcode afterwards. I tried sending them an email but there was no reply. Also, I tried their chat on their website it they replied but didnt give me a QRcode still.
Dont think of going with this !!!!!!
Experience was fair, but some applications (parking app and mapping app) did not work on Maya. Browser based web surfing worked ok. I finally had to buy a second esim from Airalo, for the critical apps above.
Installation was easy, price was okay. Coverage and speed were good.
However, the website said it would connect to all networks (docomo, KDDI, SoftBank, Rakuten) but only KDDI worked for me.
The usage display only updated every 5 days (not ideal). Top-up was not possible.
Overall an okay experience.
As a proper Naija person wey no like wahala, I carry Nesa Mobile enter Japan and I must say e work like magic! From Tokyo to Osaka, network dey steady. No need to dey look for WiFi or disturb anybody for hotspot.
Activation na breeze I just scan small QR code, and boom, my phone don dey browse like say I never comot Naija.
Sometimes the speed go slow small, especially for some areas or inside train, but other times e dey fast well enough to browse, chat, even use map when I waka lost (no shame, e happen).
One thing I gatz salute dem for na customer support. When I get small issue, I message them and dem respond quick quick. No long story. Thanks Omar!
Me and my friend bought 2 eSIM cards from Manet, they took the money but didn’t send the SIM card. It’s scam!
Worked at Varadero airport then in Havana no issues. Be patient Cuba's network isn't the best
Worked at Varadero airport then in Havana no issues. Be patient Cuba's network isn't the best
Worked pretty well. The provider they use for the US is Webbing, and internet breakout is through Webbing's servers in Dallas / Fort Worth in Texas. However, I bought these plans in January and February... I see a more recent review state that their plan had the internet breakout be in Europe, presumably Poland (via Plus). I'm not sure if that's a mistake on Always Mobile's part or something, but it's definitely worth emailing them ahead of time to check and make sure they didn't switch their US plans to using Plus instead of Webbing.
Infuriatingly slow even though eSIMDB customer service said low latency would feel snappier than 5G options. Couldn’t even use Google Translate image translation, and Google Maps takes significantly longer to load any given place’s details. Wouldn’t recommend or use again.
Fast speeds on Chunghwa Telecom's network through an Hong Kong service provider, which means that unless you connect to a VPN to override your location, websites/apps will think you're accessing them from Hong Kong. Minor annoyance for a very affordable and reliable eSIM though.
SIX, SEVEN STARS, EVEN MORE. I HAVE NEVER HAD AN ESIM THAT WORKED EVERYWHERE AND ESPECIALLY IN MONACO SO STABLE AND WITH 5G SPEED.
Break Out Point is Japan.
You will connect to IIJ (ISP)
You cannot use hotspot
Bought because listed as low latency with US breakout. Data works, but latency is not low and IP is in Europe.
What I loved most was the truly unlimited data with no hidden restrictions. The price was also the most affordable I could find—way better than airport or carrier options. Plus, it includes unlimited calls and texts, which made it super convenient for contacting hotels and using ride-sharing apps.
The sim isn't working if your don't provide your passport, I'm a taiwanese resident and can't use my card before it's transferring this data to china
It doesn't work! I tried it in Brazil and there was no way to get data. They also don't respond to the customer service chat
Pretty good experience, forgot to use the coupon code but price isn’t too bad comparative to other providers. One small issue my QR code didn’t appear in the email and so I had to reach out but they were honestly pretty response and got it resolved in less than 10 mins. Would definitely use again. Service and connection was reliable and stable too.
Highly discourage anyone from purchasing an Airhub SIM. We purchased five SIMS (4GB each) for our family members and they all stopped working at 1.8GB.
I contacted customer service and they refuse to help and after doing a Google search, several customers have said they receive less than half the data they paid for, which is aligned with our experience.
There are much better companies out there.
Bought a plan data and voice. Data worked well. Couldn't make any call. Assistance answered but kept saying to wait. Total scam. They sell only data as fata and voice. Asked for reimbursement. No answer. Never again.
NEVER TRY TO BUY THE AIRHUB FOR MEXICO UNLIMITED PACKAGES , ONCE YOU REACH 5G DATA OF USAGE ,YOU CAN NEVER ACCESS TO INTERNET ANYMORE, SPEEDTEST SHOWS THE IP IS FROM HOUSTON, 40 USD FOR 5G PROBABLY 2 YOUTUBE VIDEOS WOULD RUN IT OUT, BEST DEAL EVER. AND THE CUSTOMER SUPPORT IS THE WORST I HAVE EVER SEEN , 0 KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE INTERNET AND ONLY REPEATING THE SAME STUFF ; RESTART REBOOT AND RESET, USE THIS MONEY FOR BETTER GOOD INSTEAD OF GETTING SCAMED
I bought a 1gb esim for Brazil. I tried it in different places but it doesn't connect to data. I tried to contact customer service and they don't respond.
Scam alert! Do not use Global eSIM.
My girlfriend and I went to Colombia and we chose Global eSIM. Don’t do that, whatever the price. In Bogota, the biggest city in the country, it wasn’t working 95% of the time. We tried to get explanations from them, but they just don’t care. Worst company ever.
Catastrophic experience with this operator.
Several eSIM changes due to failures in data speeds. Service was limited to 3G with speeds not even reaching Edge levels. The operator’s response: Even if the local network allows 5G (which I confirmed on another line) and good speeds, everything depends on our (terrible) agreements. Nothing can be done.
Of course, the website advertised 5G or 4G for Egypt, which turned out to be false (from Luxor to Aswan, which was my route).
Horrible. I wasted hours providing evidence, having to start over each time with different representatives.
Cartagena works okay, Medellin works very well, but do not buy for Bogota… Customer service is a big mess!!! 6-7 emails just to get useless nonsense that’s already in the help center, and I have to repeat everything and confirm tons of times… In short, 5 days without service in the largest capital city of Colombia — a real joke!!! Definitely don’t buy!!! Now I’m trying to get a refund… already at 5 emails… A scam!
Overall, it worked well. When I first connected it in Cuba it worked at the airport but not at the hotel; it started working next morning, for the whole duration of my vacation.
I used Nesa for almost 2 weeks. Nesa was working with great speed. I had a problem with internet and they immediately fixed the problem. They have a fastest customer service i have ever had. Eventhoug the problem turns out to be a local telecom provider. I encourage everybody to choose Nesa greate service.
The esim worked well for me in Qatar. I was connected to the internet from when the airplane landed at the airport.
They have the most affordable prices for all their tiers (1/3/5/10/15 GB) on esimdb.
The team is friendly and I recommend them.
You just have to scan the QR code before flying and don't forget to enable data roaming.
Bought the 7GB eSIM. Really slow and unstable with frequent connection drops. Would not recommend.
Really good experience and great price. Support was really fast and helpful
My chip only worked for a little more than a day. I was able to consume around 10% of the 4 gigas I bought before stopped working.
Impossible to find help from you.
Don't buy.
AT&T connection is mostly non-existent in Mexico - I never saw it available in the Yucatan, and very unreliable elsewhere. Customer support very unhelpful, refused to refund, blamed my settings. Don't bother, jetpac for example worked instantly without issue.
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.
Very bad! Be aware!!!!
Lost 45$ canadian dollars
Paid a 31$ usd esim card for spain
Link said expired 1 day data product
Tried to contact them, only possible via email!
Was leaving next day so bought from Global instead
Lost 45$
Dont buy
Easy to use, decent speeds (not particularly fast but not frustratingly slow either). But this eSIM uses roaming via Hong Kong, so I wasn't able to use ChatGPT which was a bummer.
I used Nesa Mobile during my Italy trip, had a wonderful experience, highly recommended!
