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.

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.

Bought the "Europe 30 Day 1GB" E-sim connecting to the O² network in the UK. Works great, and getting the exact same connection speeds (25-35mbps) as my friend's phone which is using an O² SIM.

SIM simply did not work in Singapore and support was non existent!!
tried to get me to use their portal which wanted me to accept cookies without information on them, a real no no.

SIM supplied for UK was not as advertised connected to EE not O2.

Will not be using them again!

The service was okay on 5G, but the moment it switched to 3G or LTE it was horrible - slow, to non-existent, frustrating and unreliable. I would try another provider next time.
