I have paid but not recieved any ESIM. Looks like scam

Nitesh Kused esimzon esimzon in Egypt

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

Alejandroused GLOBAL YO GLOBAL YO in Panama

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!

Mpused Roamify Roamify in Switzerland, France, Germany, Austria, Belgium

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.

MPused Roamless Roamless in France

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.

Thomasused USA eSIM USA eSIM in United States of America

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.

monor33used thirr.com thirr.com in Azerbaijan

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.

Ngused Airhub Airhub in Colombia

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.

Dennisused Airhub Airhub in Canada

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.

tsk3238used Eskimo eSIM Eskimo eSIM in Canada

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

siddyused iRoamly iRoamly in Qatar

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.

Mouseyused WG JAPAN eSIM WG JAPAN eSIM in Japan

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.

Brian Harveyused PhoneBox PhoneBox in Canada

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.

Ivy Ganused TravelGator eSIM TravelGator eSIM in United Kingdom

I used Travel Gator’s eSIM during my UK trip and it worked great. Setup was fast, and I got connected in minutes. Coverage was strong in most places, with reliable 4G in cities and decent service even in rural areas. Customer support was quick and helpful when I had a question. Overall, a smooth and hassle-free way to stay connected without swapping SIM cards and carry heavy wifi device. I’d definitely use it again.

Janused Yesim Yesim in Maldives

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.

Johan Tused LinkeSIM LinkeSIM in Turkey

Ik had 2 e-sim gekocht van 20 GB ieders. Die van mij werkte meteen perfect. Die van mijn vrouw niet. Na een korte mail wisseling een nieuwe e-sim gekregen. Deze werkte daarna perfect. Super service van LinkeSIM!
Bereik en snelheid was prima.
Volgende keer kijk ik weer bij deze provider.

Reynier López Prevalused Roamless Roamless in Cuba

It didn't work for me because the app limits usage to specified phone models. I tried to use it on an Infinix Smart 8 and it's not compatible, then on a Samsung A34 and still not compatible. I recommend expanding the list of models with access to eSIM so it can be more widely used

agent037used Breeze Breeze in Canada

a lot of websites and apps did not work. e.g, swarm.

carriers:
rogers did not connect. telus and bell worked with above limitations.
also, it was LTE for me, not 5G.

Butler T.used iRoamly iRoamly in Hong Kong

This was my first time downloading an e-SIM. I used an iPhone 15 and everything was very simple. I didn't use the calls, just the data plan, 5GB for 10 days in Australia for $6, and it worked great. The price was very reasonable, and although I didn't check the remaining data, I can say that it was enough for me.

Dayroused GigSky GigSky in Cuba

Súper

Benused Breeze Breeze in Canada

The esim would not connect to their partner provider's (Rogers) networks, I spent all day emailing back and forth with breeze customer service trying to get the right apn settings but they were clueless and could only tell me to create an apn and put data.esim into the apn field and nothing else. This did not work. I tried the apn settings that I found on rogers website, but they also did not work.

fyi using a xiaomi 14t which is esim enabled. I followed all of the set up instructions available on Breeze's website.

complete waste of a day.

Joelused ETravelSim ETravelSim in Cuba

Vicused GLOBAL YO GLOBAL YO in France

Travelling with them across europe not first time -
VERY different expirience from competitors because of their soft!! Free music, free movies (!!!), you can even download them and watch over your flight - welcome. Pricing - just use their YOYOs !! No completion on the market.

Alexused Pingwe Pingwe in Morocco

The SIM card been delivered upon some hours, so the service is reliable. The prices are good enough, and since the service is new, upon last review they been added support in messengers.

Balzaused Jetpac Jetpac in Indonesia

Their eSIM works on the 3 (Tri) network, which isn’t as strong as TSEL but offered mostly decent coverage. Speeds were solid, with latency under 100ms (better than I expected). Not much to complain about. Can recommend.

Josefused MicroEsim MicroEsim in Brazil

Horrible, i had 3 sim cards from which 1 worked

Gregused Wifio Wifio in Switzerland

Wifio is a hidden gem in the eSIM jungle!
I had a great experience, the connection was exactly as promised: extremely fast, stable, and truly unlimited.
I ended up staying in Switzerland longer than planned, and extending the eSIM was super easy. Amazing support and overall experience. I’ll definitely book with Wifio again!

David Kellused Billion Connect Billion Connect in South Korea

Throttled to 12 mbps. Otherwise perfect connection and excellent price.

Daveused Yesim Yesim in Turkey

After a satisfied test in 2024 with Yesim in Turkey, it was clear to me to go for an eSIM from Yesim also during my vacation in 2025.

Activation is super easy, it is even possible to buy it in advance and activate it at a later time (for example, when the vacation starts). Deferred activation. Very convenient.

I was curious about the connection speed in 2025 and was amazed at how fast the Internet was with Türk Telekom.
In 2025 the download speed was between 30 and 50 Mbps and the upload was super high above 90 Mbps.

The network was 4G/ LTE+ - since 5G is almost not yet built out in Turkey (only in and around Istanbul and certain soccer stadiums)

You get a Polish IP address with Yesim (Polish provider Plus) which gives the advantage of being able to access/view/use all apps and websites without problems (Geoblock/Countryblock)

Very satisfied with Yesim and will use this app again in the future.

Luis Muelleused iRoamly iRoamly in Germany

Good! The processing speed is pretty good and it is much easier than going to a physical store to buy a card.

Jamesused Billion Connect Billion Connect in Japan, China, Philippines, South Korea

I’ve used Billion Connect for multiple eSims abroad now, and I’ve found them great every time. Their customer service responds pretty quickly to any issues, and the sims are cheap and work well. Be aware the sims are mostly based in Hong Kong so if you’re geographically far from there the latency might be a little high, and you may need a VPN for things like TikTok to work, but I’ve had very few issues.

Kaguused eSIMX eSIMX in Singapore

In terms of speed it wasn’t particularly fast or slow, just average. The connection was mostly through SIMBA, but in some locations it switched to StarHub. The biggest drawback was that, since it was roaming via Hong Kong, I couldn’t use ChatGPT.

Jamesused Yoho Mobile Yoho Mobile in Philippines

The sim worked fine, but be aware that Yoho count their days as 00:00-23:59, so if you buy a sim in the afternoon or evening, the last few hours of that purchase day will count as 1 day. I was cut off nearly a full day early because I bought it in the evening.

NoBuenoused EscapeSIM EscapeSIM in Japan

Do not buy the Clearance esim. It's not mentioned on the website, but it's routed through Hong Kong. The connection is very bad and 5G seems capped at slow speeds. I had issues keeping a consistent connection and ended up buying a MobiMatter esim that has worked flawlessly.

Milanused eSIM4Travel eSIM4Travel in Croatia

Excellent

JPN Userused Gaza Online Gaza Online in Japan

The product claimed to support multiple carriers, so I decided to try out the "eSIM, 3GB, 30 Days, Japan" for use in Japan.
It seems the APN "vmobile.jp" (iij) can be used, but... is this really multi-carrier?

Oliver Wilsonused iRoamly iRoamly in United States of America

As a UK resident travelling to the US for family visits and tourism, I purchased the 15-day unlimited data plan from iRoamly. To My surprise, it genuinely offered unlimited usage the only minor issue was slight initial connection latency (possibly due to roaming handover). As a heavy user of YT and TT with high data demands, this plan exceeded my expectations. Having visited the US multiple times, this is the first truly reliable unlimited eSIM I've encountered. Highly recommended!!

Troyzaused USA eSIM USA eSIM in United States of America

I have used USA eSIM a number of times for myself and family travelling to the US. Great customer service via email and T-Mobile coverage for both data and calls is reliable. Also allows for wifi connectivity on some US airlines, when flying in the US, which I found very handy on the American Airlines and Alaska Airline flights I took.
I suggest setting the eSIM activation to occur prior to your departure where you have access to Wifi/mobile data, to allow activation to successfully occur, or connect to wifi at your destination prior to attempting to activate your eSIM.

Danielused Airhub Airhub in Germany

At the end it's scam. The support section in the app has no function. The unlimited sim gets blocked after 10GB of usage. It's waste of money. No reaction no nothing. Just don't buy it.

Gmanused LinkeSIM LinkeSIM in United States of America

**BE WARNED**

Was about to purchase x3 eSIMs for USA when I saw this.

"Please note that TikTok, ChatGPT, and Gemini are not supported with this eSIM."

It states this for ALL their USA eSIMs.

I looked up Australia & France and there doesn't seem to have the same restrictions. Hong Kong doesn't, however they use CSL which I've used before and they restrict access to Western TikTok

ClaMattused Nesa Nesa in United States of America

iTravelalotyesindeedused Giga.Tel Giga.Tel in South Korea

Beware: 1) No call/text available in South Korea. 2) Routed via HK so not the best service due to latency, but the same as most competitors in SK for eSIM. 3) Weird discrepancy on their website about price in USD vs charged amount ($1.00 USD more is charged than shown online). How do I know? I bought 3 eSIMs from Giga.Tel in South Korea, and over 10 from eSIM competitors. So far they are still the cheapest for the same 30GB and quality of service. Plus you can checkout with American Express in case of a dispute (MobiMatter does not allow Amex)

Felixused Esimatic Esimatic in Turkey

Used the Turkey eSIM right after landing in Istanbul. Had great connection during the bus ride to Cappadocia, could work and even stream movies without issues. Was great choice for me and will continue to use.

Alex Nobiliusused Yoho Mobile Yoho Mobile in Israel

I recently purchased a premium eSIM plan from Yoho Mobile, expecting reliable service during my travels. Unfortunately, the experience was consistently disappointing across two different countries: the United Kingdom and Israel.

Connectivity Issues: The internet connection was highly unstable in both countries. While it occasionally worked, it would frequently drop without warning. More critically, VoIP services were virtually unusable. Calls via VoIP.ms would initiate but drop immediately, and WhatsApp calls would connect briefly before losing connection.

Device Compatibility: I tested the eSIM on two different devices—my Samsung S24 and my wife's Pixel 9—both experienced identical issues, indicating the problem was not device-specific.

Server Location Concerns: It appears that Yoho Mobile routes its traffic through servers in Hong Kong. This routing caused additional complications, as certain AI services and applications are restricted or blocked in that region. Without a VPN, many essential apps were inaccessible.

Unexpected Discrepancy in Reviews: What puzzles me is the overwhelmingly positive reviews Yoho Mobile has received on platforms like Trustpilot, boasting a 4.7 rating. Given my experience, I find it hard to reconcile such high ratings with the service I encountered. It's surprising that a company providing this level of service maintains such a high rating, especially when most providers in this sector have more moderate reviews.

Resolution: Out of necessity, I switched to another eSIM provider. The difference was immediate and stark—stable internet connectivity and fully functional VoIP services without the need for a VPN.

Conclusion: Despite positive reviews I encountered during my research, my experience with Yoho Mobile was overwhelmingly negative. The combination of unreliable connectivity, server-related restrictions, and the discrepancy between advertised and actual service quality makes it difficult to recommend their services.

As soon as I land in a new country, it’s just a few simple steps to activate the eSIM—and I’m instantly connected!

The connection is way more stable than my original telco’s roaming, and best of all—no more swapping SIM cards or re-adding eSIMs every time I travel.

Definitely a game-changer for frequent travellers like me! 😊🌍

I used this eSIM for a recent trip to the US, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. As a first-time eSIM user, I was a bit nervous about the setup, but installation was incredibly easy and straightforward. The connection was super fast and reliable the entire time. I’m already planning to use them again for my upcoming trip to Thailand. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a good and simple solution!

skused Airalo Airalo in Cambodia

It seems the roaming provider has changed from Singtel to KPN. As a result, data now routes through the Netherlands, thus higher latency than before (200+ms). It connects to Smart network. There were several occasions when the signal dropped to "E" (Edge), and data could not be used. This might be due to local coverage issues. The latency is still manageable, but the occasional loss of connectivity is a bit inconvenient. I wouldn't recommend it.

Anjiused Roamify Roamify in Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia

Worked great 95% of the time. Speeds were 100+mbps in most areas in all the countries I visited. Ping was around 60-200ms.
Two downsides:
1. ChatGPT or apps blocked in Hongkong do not work anymore without VPN
2. In very crowded places internet would slow down a lot

ismailnuralused LinkeSIM LinkeSIM in France

Very disappointing experience. Despite being in France, I couldn’t access essential AI tools like ChatGPT or Gemini – they simply wouldn’t load. I contacted customer support, but they were unable to resolve the issue. During my vacation, not having access to these services was incredibly frustrating. This might work for basic browsing like Instagram or Maps, but if you rely on more advanced tools, this eSIM is not reliable. One of the worst I’ve used – definitely not recommended for travelers who need stable and unrestricted internet access.

Evgeniiused Truely Truely in Tunisia

It just doesn’t work

Pamused Roamify Roamify in Japan

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.

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.

Altused Airhub Airhub in South Africa

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.

Longiused eSIM4Travel eSIM4Travel in Bosnia and Herzegovina

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.

Kuhonused Yoho Mobile Yoho Mobile in United Kingdom

It’s a typical scam - don’t use it.

Strongly not recommend - use anything else but not that.

jabashqueused Always Mobile Always Mobile in United States of America

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.

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

monglebestused esimzon esimzon in Canada

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?

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.
