Super easy to use eSIM solution for traveling to new controls and avoiding crazy roaming fees. Have used it 5 times now (2x in US, 1x in Italy, 1x in Scotland and 1x in Mexico worked perfect Everytime.

Useless in Germany - the service requires that you connect to the O2.de network. This is not available in larger parts of Germany (Hessen, Frankfurt, Kassel). I contacted customer support for Airalo and I have yet to hear back from the after a week.

when it works, it works great. However, their system has NOTICEABLE holes. Preemptively topping up your sim card does nothing, and it is something they have been aware of for at least a year. Additionally, their customer support can only be accessed though the phone app with internet and takes forever to respond. This company was put together by obvious idiots who either assume that everybody also has a physical sim card for the country they are travelling (which defeats the purpose of the app) or have never actually travelled

DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT. I have been waiting since 21st July for a refund for a service that doesn't work. I have contacted Airalo via their website and email and they are not returning contact

I tried airalo when traveling to taiwan. It did not work at all. Customer service took 4 days for the first reply, which did not help.

I spent 3 days with tech support to get my hotspot working. I know nothing about tech on phones. In the end they were worthless I figured out the problem on the 4th day myself. I took the phone off automatic carrier selection and tried the other carrier. It worked! Now why didn't they think of that? My amateur tech advice, In CH, USE SALT NOT SUNRISE IF YOU WANT TO HOT SPOT and don't bother calling the loosers at tech support.

I bought it, tried for an hour to set it up but the directions did not agree with my android version, they used words that I did not understand. They say call for help but i had no working phone. I feel this was a waste of time and money

Ok so just like most of the reviews here, my top-up never worked! I should have trusted the rating in here before I purchased Airalo. My first account’s top-up never worked. The only solution for me to get data was to create a new account and buying an altogether new plan. So the top-up I bought was for nothing. Money wasted. And guess what, customer service not helpful at all. Anyway, for the second time with my new Airalo account, my top-up did not work again. Airalo keeps saying it automatically kicks in but nope! Its frustrating if you are in constant move and if you are in a location with scarce wifi! Never using it again.

I bought an eSIM card for Europe. It worked only for a few hours a day and the connection was very slow. I had to buy a local SIM card. I asked Airalo for a refund but they denied it. I don't recommend them.
