Have used this company for UK and Europe for several years and never had a problem with a Sim card that they didn't fix within 24 hours, usually much… Read more

quicker, and if there was a problem it was something that I had erred on! Usually it is just out the card in, follow the prompts and ignore the automated messages from the host phone company! Next trip is to South America with a Global Sim.

Awful experience. I couldn’t activate the eSIM, and there was no proper customer support to help resolve the issue. I spent hours during my holiday… Read more

trying to sort it out, only for the company to eventually stop responding altogether. I also requested a refund and received no reply. I strongly recommend going with a more reliable provider that offers proper customer support.

needed a sim to work. When we arrived no luck connecting. Tried contacting the company. No response. Tried again via chat function. No response. Emailed on return home. No response. Heading to Europe in 2024. We will not be using this company. Really disappointing. $91.00 gone.

Worst service ever! DO NOT waste your money! Unresponsive and bad customer service. The global eSIM I purchased before traveling didn’t work in the… Read more

USA at all! After insisting the offered me a complimentary USA-only eSIM that stopped working after TWO days of usage!

Then I had to buy another eSIM card from a different provider, obviously, for the rest of my trip outside the USA.

Extremely disappointing and unreliable!

I asked for reimbursement since day 1 contacting you but got no response to that. Felt like a proper scam!

Usual Robbery – It was a great idea to purchase this sim for a back up. However I was prompted via SMS to recharge as the 30 day expiry was drawing near, so I did… Read more

this 8 days out and I lost those 8 days as the new start date became active as soon as my payment went through. Now I have just received another SMS prompting the same response but doing my maths I should be recharging on the 10th Feb not the 3rd as they claim. I have tried to live chat with them but I would have more luck winning power ball this Thursday. Usual rort.

purchase. When I tried to complain I was told that I should have set up VOIPs and data plans, all of which was not explained before I purchased the product. NOT HAPPY, waste of money and totally frustrating and their website is very confusing when you try and work out the problems

is activated. However we need to book transport for our arrival, and then also to get us to the airport for our return flight to Australia, but can't conclude the booking because we have not been given the phone number. Unfortunately stating our phone number is mandatory. Considering that we can't use the phone before the activation date, I don't understand why we could not have been given the phone number in advance. On our next visit to the UK in 2026, we won't bother buying a prepaid sim with this company in Australia.

Scam. Promised an email with my code in 24 hours. No code provided – I ordered a 3UK top up (20 pounds version). Got "confirmation" of my order so they could bill my US credit card. Once they got paid, NO code.… Read more

Complete rip-off. Avoid at all costs. Emails to "Peter" went unanswered. Reviews on site appear to be fake. Don't get tricked.

DO NOT BUY BNESIM products including eSIM. I give BNESIM a negative rating or zero stars. I bought a eSIM I never used. The steps /process referred … Read more

to iPhones and not Android. So I didn't bother. 1)The email said to "If you don’t wish to renew your subscription, be sure to cancel it at least one day before the renewal date to avoid any charges. To modify or cancel your plan, open the BNESIM app, tap the side menu, go to Subscriptions, and manage your subscription details." It was very hard to navigate to unsubscribe. There was only an option to "deactivate" under my Profile. I was still charged a renewal fee even though I unsubscribed before the due date. I was told there was no refund option, only a credit. 2) Even worse was when I arrived back in Australia, BNESIM changed my telecom supplier to Optus, which I don't use and never used. I copied their message "That looks like BNESIM’s standard arrival notification — BNESIM normally auto-connects to a local partner (e.g., Optus) if your plan covers Australia and mobile data roaming is enabled" I removed my credit card details and deleted the app.

me half way. Which doing so crouched on the floor of a foreign airport can be quite stressful. I also pre prepared a copy of the QR code on my iPad so I could scan it straight away from my phone. Do this if you don't know how to scan QR codes on your phone's email. Once working it was perfect and I had good coverage in Japan. I also didn't use half as much data as I thought I would so I think they are safe on that front. All in all a good experience once I set up my phone correctly. *Travellers tip turn off your home SIM card before you land. My provider automatically signed me up for roaming without my permission whilst I was setting up this new e-sim. Could cost you a lot if you receive a lot of text messages on arrival.

Scamming, don't buy! – have ordered item 108162 from this company. I don't often accuse companies of fraud, but unfortunately, this company is far from reliable when it comes to the promised amounts. They promised 3GB, but they cut you off after only 2.5GB. Show details

connectivity. Sometime it worked sometimes it did not. Then bought a second eSIM card for 15 days and did not work at all. I got in touch with team and the back a forth was taking a chunk of time. Very stressful having to deal with while your minor is by himself.

The team kept saying if you told us before etc but you do not have to experience this they do not get it that a teenager won’t be dealing with this issue the way they expected

I do not recommend using this company.

In March 2025, before going on a self-driving tour in New Zealand, I bought two prepaid NZ 10G sim cards (one for my wife). When I arrived in NZ, I… Read more

activated the two sim cards and immediately called my wife to make sure that the two sim cards were working. Three days later, I found that both sim cards could not access the Internet. I called the sim card provider (the local telecommunications company is called 2Degree) to ask what went wrong. The answer I got was that the data on my two sim cards had been used up. I told the lady who answered my question that I basically did not use the data on the sim cards. The campvan I rented was equipped with a navigation device, and my phone came with offline Google Maps, so I did not need to connect to the Internet for navigation. I arrived at the campsite, and the campsite provided free wifi. Moreover, I had no time or opportunity to use wifi in the first three days. At this time, a strange answer came. The lady said that the sim card is in your phone, and the data is also in your phone. How can I know how 20G of data ran away? You can either top up some money or upgrade to another plan. This was a really disgusting experience. I would advise not to buy this kind of rubbish sim card, it will let you down at the critical moment.
