Very stupid support who don't want to help and their sim is not worked.
Superb and very fast communication via email. More than happy with their service. Initially, thought that my eSim was given for my home country (as I scanned the QR before I left). I was re-assured that it will work perfectly when I arrive to my destination (Russia) 10 days later - and indeed it did.
I took it on a trip from two different operators. From 3h did not work in Georgia. Globalesim worked without problems in Russia, Armenia, Turkey, Georgia.
There are more than 80 travel eSIM providers and over 2 500 prepaid data plans available for use in Russia, offering a wide range of options that enable travelers to find an eSIM that meets their needs.
Unlimited data eSIM plans for Russia are available from several providers. Roamify, Billion Connect, Yoho Mobile, abesteSIM, Truely, Yesim and Airhub all offer unlimited data for stays ranging from 1 to 30 days (Airhub’s plan is 5 days). Most of these plans allow tethering, but the connection speed may be throttled, and for Yoho Mobile and abesteSIM the speed is capped at 5 Mbps. Prices for unlimited plans vary widely, from as low as about $3.50 to as high as roughly $450 USD, giving travelers a range of options based on budget and device usage requirements.
In Russia, the primary Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) are:
MTS (Mobile TeleSystems): One of the largest mobile operators in Russia, offering extensive coverage and a wide range of services.
MegaFon: A major telecommunications provider known for its comprehensive network and diverse service offerings.
Beeline (PJSC VimpelCom): A significant player in the Russian mobile market, providing various mobile services across the country.
Tele2 Russia (Rostelecom): A competitive operator offering mobile services with a growing customer base.
In addition to these MNOs, Russia hosts several Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs). MVNOs provide mobile services by leasing access from major carriers. Notable examples include Yota, SberMobile, and Tinkoff Mobile. However, most travel eSIMs rely on MNO infrastructure rather than MVNOs.
