 AI reviews summary 

Superloop Mobile SIM Only plans receive high praise for their customer support, which is frequently described as polite, knowledgeable, and efficient. While many users report a smooth transition when porting numbers or setting up eSIMs, a segment of customers experience significant technical frustrations. These issues primarily relate to data connectivity and the limitations of the wholesale network.

Pros
High-Quality Support: Staff members are consistently commended for being professional, patient, and effective at resolving technical queries during the first point of contact.
Efficient Porting and Setup: The process of transferring mobile numbers from other providers and activating new services is typically fast and well-guided.
User-Friendly Digital Tools: The mobile app, "Superhub" management portal, and the AI chatbot (Teddy) are highlighted as convenient and effective tools for managing services.
Effective eSIM Integration: Despite occasional initial technical hurdles, the support team is successful in assisting users with eSIM registration and device transfers.
Cons
Network Congestion and Data Issues: Multiple users report having full signal bars but no actual internet access, attributing this to heavy traffic or the "wholesale" nature of the network.
Wholesale Network Limitations: There are complaints regarding the coverage and speed of the Telstra wholesale network compared to the full retail network, particularly in busy or regional areas.
Initial Activation Glitches: Some users encountered multi-day delays or technical errors during the initial SIM activation or porting phase that required manual intervention.
Inconsistent Support Experiences: While overall sentiment is positive, some users experienced long wait times or had to interact with multiple agents before finding a resolution.
Verdict

Superloop is a strong contender for users who value accessible and friendly Australian-based customer service and easy-to-use digital management tools. However, potential customers should be aware of reported data performance issues in congested areas due to the inherent limitations of the wholesale network.

I previously requested my mobile service be added to my account and that I would then be in line to get a discount on my nbn service. I didn't, which prompted me to reach out again. This time I was connected with a consultant that knew what I was requesting, and within less than 10 minutes not only had my mobile service added (I could see that… Read more

visibly on my account profile), I was also given the credit and discount due).

Nothing more and nothing less but I didn't expect anything more.

You won’t get internet access, too much traffic as a second hand provider. Full bars, no internet. When you contact them they say nothing can do about it, and they won’t refund Avoid

mobile was having issues connecting. I only messaged from another device as, I had resolved the issue & thought I'd check to make sure everything is okay by messaging with a human, my phone was still setting up. I explained all the boxes were tisked & green & was informed all was well & not to worry with a detailed description of what would happen next & if it was not connected by 8pm it would stat again at 8pm tomorrow. So, I await for 8pm tomorrow........but I'm confident all will be well, which I wouldn't have been with my last telco. I won't mention their name was Telstra & I'd been with them 25 years but they are pretty useless now.

 Follow-up  · Unfortunately, the support has gone downhill now they have their greedy Mits on my money. When it works, it's great, when it doesn't, is as rubbish as Telstra. Black out areas still exist despite their very expensive routers, $1,000 for 2 & you cannot mount them to the wall unless you buy holders which are also lots of $$$. Okay, 100mbps is… Read more

Easy to order and setup the esim. Discovered that my phone would be better served with a physical SIM. A short chat with customer service and a new SIM is on its way with the same number. Show reply

 Follow-up  · I need to have two SIMs active, which iPhones generally support. This particular model does not support two eSIMs active, one of them has to be a physical SIM.

I have moved my NBN internet and 2 mobile phone to Superloop, it’s not just they are less expensive compare to others but the customer service is fast and efficient. My internet service is fast too. Highly recommended!

Zeehara did an amazing job. Unfortunately I was most unimpressed with Timothy as he struggled to relate to me often talking over the top of me and it was evident he didn't respect the customer service relationship experience but Zeehara absolutely redeemed the process. Thank you Zeehara.

Shhiab was very good and he fixed my simple issue. I would like to give him 5 stars. But the process went on all day where two other operators made mistakes. They never sent a link to review, probably for good reason! This is not the first time I’ve had similar issues with mobile phones and internet. It seems we all need to accept this sort of effort.

The ONLY reason I am still with Superloop is because of one person and he is such a good customer service executive that he should be running the company. The technician is called Umesh R and his efforts have kept us with Superloop. Once the salesperson (Filipino) stuffed up the E-Sim process so when my and my daughters phone was not making calls,… Read more

he knew exactly why and then went into the best sales support I have ever witnessed. He ordered two sim cards and got them sent Express post. He then emailed the dispatch to ensure they sent them priority. His last words to me were as soon as he hears from Aus. Post he will email me and let me know the tracking number. Yesterday I received two emails one with the tracking number the other with the they have been sent. both from Umesh.

Then I noticed that e accounts had already started billing us for some thing we did not have and after a particularly bad chat with ray in Accounts who basically said it was my fault for ordering the sims which I had not done. I emailed Umesh and he sorted it all out for us.

If I was Umesh's employer I would promote the man or at least give him a pay rise because after the sales experience and with accounts I would be with another provider now. Umesh saved the day and has sorted other people debacles out afterwards. What a super agent he is.

Superloop uses the Telstra Wholesale Network, which is the poor cousin of Telstra's full network (despite advertising the fact that it uses the Telstra network.... misleading much?). It's slower, it struggles in busy areas where the mobile network is heavily utilised (ie airports), and doesn't offer the same breadth of coverage, so if you travel… Read more

outside of metro capital city areas or spend any time in densely populated areas, Superloop Mobile will make you crazy. Despite admitting to me that there are "inherent limitations of the Telstra wholesale network", Superloop flat out refused to compensate me (I asked for 1 month's credit for two services -- $78), so I cancelled both mobile services and our home NBN service. Good riddance, Superstinges.

Dinuk is very friendly to talk to and proactively assists on my concern. I am satisfied with my experience with customer support. SuperLoop made it convenient to reach out via the mobile app and you can pretty much manage all your services from within.

Zeehara was very helpful in guiding me through the setup process which was only needed because my not following instructions was the reason for the problem in the first place. She was courteous and helpful in getting the service up and running.

There was about a week and a half of delays in setting up a physical SIM for my phone. In the end we gave up and support staff helped me set up an eSIM. Umesh, who helped me set up the esim was very helpful after a frustrating week.

I joined Superloop to be on a Telstra network because the Optus network blocked my phone. I registered for an esim. The initial port failed. Superloop customer service rep sorted it after providing more details and within an hour on a Saturday the port was successful. The network has been fine so far for my basic needs. Show details

I was having trouble scary the esim QR code and had to call to fix the issue. I was informed that there was a back end issue, and the gentlemen helping me said that he would take care of it personally and assured me that if he couldn't fix it by the end of the day he would contact me with more information. The only reason I didn't give this an excellent reateing is that we couldn't fix it right away. Overall im happy with the outcome. Show details

Bought 2 sim only connections; Umesh from Superloop was very helpful with activation process, great customer service and interpersonal skills - keep up the good work. Was charged extra money and Umesh was diligent enough to raise refund request to his billing team on a Sunday. First time using Superloop network, fingers crossed, hoping to get good network and internet speed, let’s see.
