Pretty poor experience. 5G promised but actually 4G only. Talked to their customer service. Guess what? They say it varies by area and operator
very bad coverage, I've been traveling through Zimbabwe for a week and had a connection in exactly one place (Bulawayo) and also there not everywhere. Not even in touristy places like Victoria Falls it did work. Singly avoid this eSim from Airalo. I've also used there global eSim which worked just fine.
Great prices, but incredibly slow. At most I can get 0.2mb/s, about 2000x slower than my normal Sim Card.
The first time I used an international eSIM from this website with this company, I had no problems at all. I generally got 5G, and I was even in small towns in Japan—I honestly didn’t expect it to work that well.
I highly recommend it. To avoid any issues, and since it was 20GB, I disabled several apps so they wouldn’t use data in the background. By the way, I was also sharing it with my wife.
Everything was perfect.
This company is a scammer. They sell misadvertised esims that does not work fully in the advertised countries. It shuts off after a short use. Stay away.
I expect that in 2025 any LTE services to be "usable". This is barely useful for my expectation.
Social media is slow, gaming is slow, I trusted esimdb's low latency tag and have to say I am disappointed.
Tested location: Narita airport.
I should have went with Nesa+ and not cheap out the couple of dollars.
Truly awful 3G speed on strong 5G towers in Amsterdam. I have excellent signal strength on my device, yet somehow my 300GB Europe eSIM from Airhub consistently produces 3Mpbs down and up. This strongly suggests rate limiting. Over several days it's like this with the only advice from Airhub support to restart the device, which does nothing.
I ordered a 3 day unlimited package which didn't work. Requested for a refund twice and was promised I'd get it in a few days. I still haven't been refunded for almost a month now.👎
works in ontario with my Sony Xperia IV!!!!!!!! phone call works, texts were a little laggy so I just rebooted my phone and then they all came in lol
eSIM i ordered was not what I expected. Support was fast in answering and helpfull. In the end they give me a refund.
Can't say anything about internet speed or anything, but will use them again for their support team
Bnesim works really well in Istanbul – I usually get speeds between 70 and 100 Mbps. And their customer service is great – they reply within just a couple of minutes.
I bought unlimited for one day. Throttling speed was so obvious, can't go above 200 kb/s. Regardless of advertising 5g, esim connected on LTE network.
Complete waste of money.
They sell a 100gb esim that is supposed to be good for USA but limit it to 12gb and want to charge you more money. Terrible service and becuase it connects through a UK vpn, nothing works in the USA.
Bought two eSIMs for me and my GF, can't use data with both of them. Filled contact form, no reply. Mailed them, no reply. And their phone number is gone from their website. They are total scam! You'll keep getting PDP error.
11:10 inserted eSIM into the phone.
11:13 removed, and 215 MB out of 1 GB consumed. I go to check the data used:
System applications 545 KB, WhatsApp 24 KB, wallpaper carousel 10 KB, and Mi Browser 7 KB. Less than 600 KB in total.
215 MB compared to 600 KB is a big difference.
Update on previous review: They now route the data through a London VPN so that .gov sites and everything else works. Some very picky sites like homedepot still don't work, but I don't think it's possible to avoid with an international sim. Their site updated to Verizon/T-Mobile which is accurate, but they haven't updated this info across all plans. Expect high latency, as data is routed first through Hong Kong then London and data is QCI 9 but other than that I found it to be very reliable over a few months.
Worked flawlessly, full speed to the last megabyte. No annoying app required.
Fraud! Their eSim does not truly give you the GBs they advertise. Instead they have fine prints that they try to hide. Out of the 40GB I purchased, only 6GB of roaming is included.
worked well when it did but kept on getting PDP authentication errors stopping me from accessing the internet randomly which left me stranded once
The eSIM Europe Unlimited Data didn’t work in Serbia — while it worked fine in other EU countries (Switzerland, Austria, and Germany).
I opened a ticket a week ago and still haven’t received any help.
Avoid this company’s SIMs. If they fail, good luck getting help — you’ll end up buying a new one somewhere else.
I got the 2GB for 30 days(not sure about the duration of plan) and it was amazing. Honestly all there esim's are very close to the cheepest and the have a cash back wallet where you earn 10% of every purchase which can than be used to pay for future esim's with them. They use the liberty network in Costa Rica BTW and all their esims are routed through Poland but I didn't feel any slow speeds.
Turns off and doesn’t work every so often. They’re very difficult to contact. Don’t recommend use a different one.
Not that fast but okay-ish speeds in Japan on the KDDI (au) network. However, the biggest drawback is that this eSIM routes through Hong Kong (HK IP address), so ChatGPT doesn’t work which is a real shame.
Worked great in USA but data goes through Hong Kong so no ChatGPT or TikTok. I would get 300 mbs when doing Speedtest
I ordered an eSim for Greece and it simply didn't work upon landing which is what I've come to expect after many similar purchases from other vendors. In my opinion no one should spend valuable time debugging such issues abroad so we simply ordered from a different vendor and everything worked right away. I asked Airhub for a refund and they didn't even reply to my request.
eSIM used in Corsica, very good service. Almost always with Orange LTE (in Corsica 5g coverage is quite poor)
It works but traffic goes through Hong Kong so you'll get latency and China's censorship (no ChatGPT or TikTok).
Support response was "get a VPN", so totally useless
Works out of the proverbial box. It's an Orange Poland SIM roaming on Rogers, 5G. Ignore their apn recommendations; the default internetipv6 works better
A plus poland SIM. APN comes pre-programmed. Connected to Freedom Mobile. No functional data connectivity.
I purchased this eSIM for my trip to the US and was satisfied with the ease of installation and the very affordable price. However, I encountered some issues with data traffic being routed through Hong Kong, causing latency and blocking some services like TikTok and ChatGPT. When I reached out to support, they seemed surprised and went on the defensive, rather than offering a helpful solution. It would have been helpful if this was clearly stated on the website and if support was more knowledgeable and proactive in addressing the issue. Overall, the service was easy to use, but these issues impacted my overall experience.

Used Travelgator eSIM on my trip, setup was fast and easy, and the connection was reliable the whole time. No need for physical SIMs, and I had data as soon as I landed. Great value and responsive support. Highly recommend! Great eSIM for Travel!
I used the Global eSIM 1GB with a coupon for use within Japan.
It worked very smoothly.
When I went to Hakone where the signal tends to be weak, it stayed connected by switching between SoftBank and KDDI depending on the location.
I think it’s good to keep one as a backup in case of network outages.
The IP address will be from overseas so be careful with Japan-only services.
Their free plan of 500MB seems to be scam. Checked on my and my girlfriend account both not working after registration. Used our real e mails and never used this company before also will never use and recommend you same.
Terrible decision I made purchasing internet from him. Also this guys supports terrorism please be aware
Terrible. This company is a scam bought the internet to use in Europe internet was terrible and didn't work. Wasted my money. The owner is a biggest scam.. do not trust this company
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Absolutely fantastic experience. My Vietnam eSIM activated the moment I landed, and the data was fast and reliable everywhere I went. Setup was effortless, and I stayed connected without a single hiccup. Perfect for hassle-free travel—highly recommended.
The internet was extremely slow. Many times my T-Mobile 2G international service was faster. Almost unusable.
Uses Hong Kong IPs, some .gov sites and Amazon cloudfront sites don't work, but TOR works to bypass without a bridge. Only complaint is that it was initially advertised as all three carriers, but they seemed to switch their roaming policies so I only get T-Mobile/Verizon and sometimes Verizon doesn't work. Maybe some carriers are LAC locked, but I would have another eSIM with permanent data to use other carriers in a pinch if you need. They are also a new provider so their rates/policies change quick.
Used Yoho twice in the last month for jaunts into the US. Cheap plans that work great for my needs. I am not normally streaming, but downloading music, maps,
research on the fly…
Had an issue with the eSIM not being formed, but relogging in solved it.
Terrible esim. Does not work at all. And worst of all no customer service support. And to top it off they have a terrible app. No refund. Feel it's a scam.please don't purchase this esim.
I bought 14 300GB eSIMs for Europe and they all stopped working when they reached 35GB. I filed a complaint with AirHub and they told me they didn't actually provide 300GB and only offered 35GB. I asked for a refund and they never gave it to me. That company is a scam. Stay away if you don't want to be scammed.
AIRHUB is a SCAM. They are thieves who steal your money and give you eSIMs with less GB than they offer.
It didn't worked most of the time.
I bought sim card on airport (Unitel-T) for my wife and it was ok. Esim from MTX used the same network, but didn't want to work.
It worked perfectly throughout Europe, the esim is easy to instal and instructions were clear
Horrible experience. I was never able to activate the eSIM. I kept getting kicked out as the app attempted to register on different networks. I followed dozens of troubleshooting steps with customer service, all without success. I escalated the issue twice, but it was never resolved. I ended up spending four hours of my vacation trying to get it to work.
In the end, I purchased another eSIM from a different provider — it worked like a charm. I even bought another one for use in Panama, which also worked flawlessly and was incredibly easy to activate.
Avoid this service like the plague. It feels like a scam. Even the app looks like an online casino, not a professional eSIM provider.
Horrible experience. Never again. I lost $25 on the Global XL plan, which I never got to use.
Only the payment system works, price was debited from my card but then I just get "unknown error manufacturing esim".
Support does not respond.
Seems to be a scammer website, pity that they are listed here.
No issues in the US. I bought 7 eSIMs and we activated them without any problems upon arrival. In fact, one person ended up not traveling, so I contacted their customer service, and within 24 hours they replied and refunded me for the unused eSIM. A perfect 10/10.
I tried ordering the FREE plan and set it up on my iPhone SE2.
At first, the eSIM activation stayed in “processing on the server” status for about 10 minutes without any response, so I just left it for a while until it finally completed.
After that, the phone stayed out of service and couldn’t connect to the network for over an hour. I had almost given up, but eventually, it just started working on its own.
In terms of speed, there were no issues.
While using the service, I kept checking the data usage on the website, but after reaching 0.01GB, the connection stopped working completely. I thought maybe the usage display was just delayed, but even the next day, it hadn’t updated. It felt like I had used more data than what was shown, so the website’s usage display doesn’t seem very reliable.
i bought an esim from SMARTLINE INC. using a card that i only used there, and after that i received attempts of fraud transactions.
Overall it was a pleasant experience. Purchase and setup was quick and easy. Will use again if needing a short term Esim for travel.
Used it multiple times. First time the activation email arrived in my spam inbox and I was panicking. Activation process requires a few more steps than with other providers but very easy process good to follow.
Last time I activated the eSIM before I left europe, and my United flight had free internet for T-Mobile users, and the phone number I got for this Esim worked as well!
Worked well through 4 Canadian provinces. Tethering worked perfectly too.
SIM seemed to be provided via a Polish network as I often got search results that assumed I was in Poland.
took 2 mins to activate but it said in the mail it'd take 30mins even up to 24 hrs, scared me a little
Like Ben who gave a review. I tried everything to get this to work. It would show I had signal but would not pass data. I looked it did not auto getting APN settings. I tried many settings and could never get it to allow any data in. So it was a waste of money my wife also lost money on breeze. I did go to a different esim company (Globalesim) that allowed bell and was able to setup an apn that worked fine for that company.
Bought their Vietnam eSIM with Viettel number. Was extremely good. I believe it's exactly the same as prepaid Viettel SIM product available to tourists at the airport, just in eSIM form. Excellent Ping (below 50ms), fast speeds. Solid choice.
I used travelgator on my trips to Korea and Bangkok and it was great! Super easy to install, and kept me connected always. Also love that I can keep track of how much data I have left! Will definitely use travelgator again for my future travels.
The worst e sem I ever used
It was not able to be installed and there were no supper or help center to inquire
I sent email but no reply and no way to refund
Was on a cruise ship for these four countries (MSC world Europea). This plan has multiple network carriers per country so I was able to have coverage even while on the boat in the middle of the ocean because it was able to switch carriers so quickly. Plus I got the Europe + USA plan so I was able to use the remaining data at home instead of using my regular cellular plan.
The network is very unstable, download speed is bad, upload speed is awful, but after 700 mb the sim just turned off and that's it. EDGE and no internet access.
Bought a plan and nowhere in the checkout process was 4G only mentioned. Contacted support and they cancelled the plan as requested but they also pettily banned my account.
My God. I’m so stupid. I didnt check the reviews. It is a scam and their customer service is the worst. Avoid them like the plague.
Connectivity and speeds were spotty in Osaka and Kyoto. eSIM did NOT support hotspot sharing. Would not buy an eSIM from this provider again.
It didnt connect ntt docomo. It connects iij and its around 5 mbps, too slow..
I ordered several eSIMs for my team for our trip to Switzerland. The coverage and speed were amazing and super reliable! Everyone was really happy. I totally recommend it.
DID NOT WORK... Threw my money away, couldn't get support. don't waste your time, effort and money, so disappointed. Plan expired and not a MB used.
The eSIM was reliable for maps, social media, and basic browsing, though in some areas the speed wasn’t as fast as I expected. Still, it saved me a lot of stress and was way more affordable than roaming charges. Overall, I think it’s a really good option if you want a smooth, hassle-free way to stay connected while traveling.✨✨
I had a great experience using Esimzon Egypt eSIM. The data speed was fast and reliable, perfect for navigation and streaming and customer support is excellent specially Harry, recommend esimzon for anyone traveling to Egypt
Horrible. The service never worked. SIM never was able to register with a network. I tried troubleshooting for 2 days losing 2 or 3 hours talking with CS, they asked me to do several things nothing worked, they gave another Sim same thing. The CS was slow to respond and powerless, I escalated the ticket and nobody answer. I purchased a Sim from other company and worked great. Never again! Beware is a scam because I lost my $25!
10gb sim used across Europe. Worked great for 10 days, then suddenly the speed just dropped to 40kbps despite still showing 5G.
Customer service non-existant. No response to live chat or useful info online so had to buy another sim from jetpac.
Tried the free 500mb offer. Bit of a faff to get set up as you have to download the app, then there's no indication the free sim is active. Worked well in France until it completely stopped working after about 20 hours and 130mb of use.
For a Google Pixel 8, I bought the unlimited national US package by USA eSIM and I can only say it worked flawlessly. I'm from Europe and the eSIM was released and made available even before we left Europe, so when I was in JFK airport I had access.
I will admit, I was a little nervous this was a scam, but I really can't complain. T-Mobile network, flawless delivery via email and directly on the phone, unlimited data - also via hotspot and tethering, and I've not been subject to any throttling. Your Internet access point is directly on T-Mobiles network and not via Hong Kong, like the rest of the cheap options.
All in all, if you need data access on your phone in the US, this seriously the best deal you may find.
Bought an unlimited data plan for 30 days. It's not only the cheapest option, but works without throttling and any other limits set. Good choice for Azerbaijan.
I bought the 30 days plan esim for Colombia and tried to activate it upon arrival without success. I had to buy another esim from another company which worked right away and for 1 week. After several exchanges, the esim finally was activated. BUT, everytime I needed WIFI to connect to the network and get data. I told them the problem and asked for refund since I never was able to use it. They refused. So you buy an esim to get data but to get data you need wifi to connect to the network.
Worst experience with esim, especially if you need it to move around in cities like Bogota.
I bought the North America 4gb SIM specifically becauase it uses the Rogers network and im going somewhere in Canada with only rogers towers. Guess what? The SIM only works on Bell/Telus and doesnt work on rogers tower. Trying to get a refund but their chat support is slow.
Eskimo eSIM- caution!!
After you install the Eskimo travel eSIM, trial or otherwise and decide to deactivate and close your account. The device can no longer be used again should your sell your smart phone or give to someone else. Quote in the Eskimo Support and email: "You will also not be able to create a new account on the same device in the future." Speeds were 50-90MbpsDL/4-9Mbps UL, not too bad.
Basically, your Android or iPhone device is black listed from future installation by a new user or same owner. SOL in either case.
Due to this condition, I generously gave a 1-Star rate for re-installation that was impossible after deletion and deactivation of 1st time use account even if I were to purchase a plan and scan the original QR code. Not a good way to market the product.
🚫 Definitely not recommended for:
• Shared devices
• People trying to test their service first
• Reuse with new accounts for friends/family
Bought the 500gb unlimited 1 day plan of USD 10 for Qatar. It's being marketed that plan is not throttled. But in reality it's throttled at 10mbps. Shame shame.
As the other reviewer mentioned setup was a bit tedious with having to manually configure a connection on android. but it worked perfectly as soon as I landed in Japan. 50GB for €22 was a great deal for my 3 weeks Japan.
Hotspot worked also and I had good data connection all around Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka.
Just to make others aware. attached is a sample of the setup process that has to be followed, it seems daunting at first but it was easy enough to setup.
Signed up for them because their website advertises Rogers as provider, and Rogers is the only provider with service in the remote location I travelled to. Upon activating the esim, the provider was actually Telus, and did not work where I was. I contacted PhoneBox to request a transfer to Rogers or a refund, but was denied on both accounts. This company is horrible, customer service is unwilling to help. I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere for a service provider.
5G everywhere good price, you can use the chatgpt and others with vpn easy !!
