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.

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.

Bought two of their O2 50gb plans. One worked fairly well, the other refused to work in most of Spain. Nonexistent support. Poor performance. Would not buy again.

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

They charged my credit card but never delivered a working eSIM. Support never responded to requests. Their app is horrible and looks like it was designed and programmed by a 3-year-old. Ended up disputing the charge with my credit card provider. Avoid!

TLDR: AirHub are "Legal" scammers.

We ordered a Global Esim for Europe, for 30 days 50 GB.
I was in Madrid at the time, and the sim was very crucial for us as we are traveling in a motorhome so needed it for finding proper place to sleep and park, proper places to drive through (the van is big), and of course Navigation among other things.

2 days in, when we passed near Andorra, the phone automatically connected to a network from there and went offline.
Since then, we were unable to connect to any network in France\Italy or anywhere else.
Upon contacting Airhub, we received a response:

"The plan was triggered by connecting to the wrong network, causing it to be blocked by the carrier. Once it is blocked, we cannot unblock the line."
Of course they said that it is written in the conditions, which it may very well be, which basically covers them from helping their customers in any case:

"We clearly mentioned the possibility of blockage in the additional information provided during the purchase of the plan."

We requested it be unblocked - they said they can't.
We asked for a refund - they said they can't.
We even asked them to give us a new sim instead (this one was 2 days in from the 30 promised) - they said they can't.

And believe me when I say that we tried our luck multiple times talking to them.

After presenting them with an ultimatum - Refund or a truthfull review and complaint, they offered some sort of voucher, which we refused as the we find it more important to help travelers avoid getting scammed and getting into dangerous situations - we immediately bought another sim, local, and the only problem for us was lost 30 Euros, going the wrong way a couple times, inconvenience talking to the families, and a missed business meeting. For others, in remote places this could present real danger if basing their travels on reception.

We have used Airalo before, and they worked great, so I would recommend them.

Upon reading some reviews, it seems AirHub are using some sketchy technology not aimed for Esim at all and this is causing many of the problems.

And thus, without doubt, this company is a danger for travelers and anyone dependant on a mobile device (who doesn't?), and I strongly recommend avoiding them.

We have screenshots of the conversations and are filing a complaint, hopefully we will manage to stop the scamming.

Did not have a great experience with Airhub. They had multiple sets of instructions which conflicted with each other. Both instructions said to change the APN from the default configuration but had different values for what to change it to. Internet connection would sometimes stop working entirely *regardless* of what I set it to in Spain, and in Greece only seemed to work when I reset it to the default (not either of the values from the instructions).

Good price per GB, but not that valuable if it doesn't work. I don't plan to use Airhub again in the future.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many travel eSIM brands (providers) are available for use in Spain, and how many prepaid data plans are there?

Spain offers roughly 110 travel eSIM brands and about 6 200 prepaid data plans, providing a wide variety of options for travelers to choose from.

Are there any unlimited data eSIM plans available for Spain?

Unlimited data eSIM plans are available for Spain from a number of providers. Firsty offers a free‑to‑use plan that advertises unlimited data, but speed is capped at 256 kbps and the service includes ads. Yoho Mobile, Roamify, MicroEsim, Billion Connect, abesteSIM, Truely, Yesim, and FairPlay all provide unlimited data, and most of them allow tethering, though all state that speed may be throttled at times. Prices for these unlimited plans range from as low as $0.00 for Firsty to around $28.32 for MicroEsim, with most plans falling between roughly $2.00 and $28.00. Travelers should note the potential speed restrictions and consider their data‑usage needs when selecting a plan.

What are the major mobile networks available for a travel eSIM in Spain?

Spain's mobile network infrastructure is primarily supported by the following major Mobile Network Operators (MNOs):

Movistar: Operated by Telefónica, Movistar is one of Spain's most established telecommunications providers, offering extensive coverage and a wide range of services.
Vodafone Spain: Part of the global Vodafone Group, Vodafone Spain provides advanced 4G and 5G services, with a strong presence in urban areas.
Orange España: A subsidiary of the multinational Orange Group, Orange España offers competitive pricing and comprehensive mobile services, including family packages.
MasOrange: Formed from the merger of Orange España and MásMóvil, MasOrange has become Spain's largest mobile operator, serving over 30 million customers.

In addition to these MNOs, Spain hosts numerous Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs) that provide mobile services by leasing access from major carriers. Notable local MVNOs include Digi Mobil and Simyo. However, it's important to note that most travel eSIMs rely on the infrastructure of the primary MNOs rather than MVNOs.

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

Travel eSIM plans that include a phone number and SMS service for Spain are available from two providers listed in the database: GlobaleSIM and Roamify. Both offer voice calls (inbound and outbound) and SMS messaging. The phone numbers delivered with these plans use U.S. dialing code +1; therefore the numbers are not local Spanish numbers. Some Roamify Canary Islands packages employ a French digit +33, which also does not provide a Spanish local number, but the services are usable within Spain.

Prices for such plans begin around $4.00 for a 1GB, 7‑day option and extend to roughly $100 for 100GB plans with 30‑day validity. Validity periods range from 7 days up to 30 days, and data caps vary from 1GB to 100GB. These plans provide local calling and SMS capabilities while the user remains connected to Spanish networks through data.
