UPDATE: With code WINTER23 you get an additional $2 Credit.

This is a nice freebie!! I haven't tested it (because I don't have an eSim compatible device), however where I saw it they say it still works.

            @igorekh: Very Curious! I tried to get support from TEL-U but all they do is tell me to send them screenshots from the Sim setting and they couldn't really figure out what was wrong.

    They might like to get their shit together a bit better though: zero support documentation for new users (other than an iPhone-only installation guide) is pretty amateurish. eSIMs are great, but you need to be careful about which ones can be reinstalled (e.g. if you're using multiple eSIM providers and your phone only allows one to be installed at a time), and sometimes getting the settings right can be very difficult, especially for newbies (forums like Flyertalk are rich with comments about eSIM problems while travelling, often because of user error, but also the difficult settings that can sometimes be involved).

    I use esim and normal sim on my phone, concerned that if I activate this one it will replace my current esim 😕 does anyone know what happens normally?

    • timhn on 26/11/2023 - 15:36

      Look up on your phone model to check. Depend on which phone model you can have 2 active esim.

      • hawkeye93 on 27/11/2023 - 16:23

        only applicable from iphone 13? Previous generations allow 1 esim active at a time, iirc.

    • md333 on 26/11/2023 - 15:52

      In my case (pixel 4a,7,8) you can have multiple esims on the phone, but only one active at any time. Like having a bunch of sims in your pocket but only one slot on the phone, but much less chance of dropping one.

    • zacothewacko on 26/11/2023 - 18:06

      S21 ultra user here, currently have 3 esims installed and I just toggle them on/off as need be. They all work independently.

  • md333 on 26/11/2023 - 15:49

    This sounds really good actually. I might even keep using it after the free $10 (which is obviously what they are hoping for).
    Quite frustrating some of them require a 7 day plan or a 30 when I need 9 etc.

    Say goodbye to wasting money on unused plans:

    Roamless has no data plans. Just add funds to your balance and you’re connected. The funds you don’t use on your trip? They never expire, so you can use them on your next trip (and the trip after that, and the trip after that… you get the idea).

  • ozbargainerlife1 on 26/11/2023 - 16:02

    Credit added. Thankss.

    Do I activate esim a day before or do I do it now?

    Do I have to select a country whem activating or is it automatic?

    Thanks

    • Robc on 26/11/2023 - 19:10

      Set it up now, and then turn it off until you travel. You have to let "data roaming" happen on that sim. Everything is auto, but you should allow the app to access your location.

  • JerryB on 26/11/2023 - 16:06

      Nah, it's data only.

      I use these esims services and a virtual number on cloudsim for worldwide roaming. Seems to work well.

      • spicspec on 28/11/2023 - 14:25

        Could you explain how this works in a bit more detail?

        • Robc on 28/11/2023 - 15:15
          +1

          I travel a lot and generally roaming is often a pain in the grand scheme of things. So I use a cloud based mobile number, that only works if you've access to the net. It's an app, that works on android or PC, although there's lots for iPhone as well. Think "WhatsApp", but they don't need to call you from a WhatsApp account. For anyone calling me, it looks like they're just calling a standard number, and costs them standard rates. For me, it's free to receive calls, and a pay a minimal per minute price to call from wherever I am. Texts are around 5c each. To make this work wherever I am, I used to just buy a local sim. I still do if I'm there for over a few weeks, but…. These new roaming esims are a really nice way to maintain connectivity before I've bought a local sim, or if I'm somewhere for a short amount of time/ will have WiFi 95% of the time.

          It's a use case thing. If you just want, for example, to be able to receive banking texts from your provider, amaysim 10 dollar sims give you that facility as an esim for one year. I use cloud sim to maintain a UK/US number to allow me access to stuff that needs a local number. Krispcall or sonetel have Australia numbers and plans from 3 bucks a month. it really depends what you want to achieve.

          • spicspec on 28/11/2023 - 15:58

            @Robc: Thanks for the response! So it sounds sort of like internet phoning?

            I have an android and I'm planning to spend around 5 weeks in Europe next year, my initial idea was to buy a cheap sim once I landed in Europe for a European number and use this service (i.e. Roamless) for the data aspect, but I also wanted to keep the Australian sim to receive SMS for 2 factor authentication and so on (since I only have one sim slot).

            But with cloudsim, would it be feasible that I can keep my physical Australian sim in to receive SMS to my regular Australian number, use cloudsim to generate a European number, and use Roamless for data?

            • Robc on 28/11/2023 - 16:54
              +1

              @spicspec: That would work fine. I'd say that you might as well see if you can convert your Australian sim to an esim, if your phone supports that. Many phones with a single slot will happily support an Extra esim, letting you buy a cheap physical card in Europe. Those are cheap there, come with roaming by default. Or look for a esim option wherever your trip starts.

              You may not find you actually need a euro number, if you've WhatsApp. Skype is still going, and has saved me a few times, as a handy way to call hotels etc from wherever.

              From the sound of it, just get a Skype account with 10 bucks of credit, leave your Aussie sim where it is, and sign up for a few of these esims to tide you over where there's no WiFi. There's Other deal on it here right now for a GB on Eskimo for free, same real esim.

              Best of both worlds. 👍

              • spicspec on 29/11/2023 - 19:28

                @Robc: Oh that sounds like a great idea since my provider (Catchconnect) doesn't do eSim. A physical Australian sim to receive SMS, skype (using data/wifi) to make calls, and a bunch of esims for data!
                Can I receive calls through Skype? Because then all bases would be covered!

          • illumination on 29/11/2023 - 12:11

            @Robc: That's interesting! I'm kinda looking for the cheapest way from overseas to:

            • Call Australian numbers; and
            • Receive calls from Australian numbers
            • Call Malaysian/Singapore numbers (from time to time)

            Do you have any tips for this? Pretty specific use-case mind you

            • Robc on 29/11/2023 - 20:55
              +1

              @illumination: Skype can give you a local Australian number, but it'll cost you around 80 bucks a year, plus you'll need some credit for dialling out/messaging out. That's a very nice solution though, no one will know that you're not at home, you can receive calls anywhere where there's WiFi /mobile data. Rates are cheap, a few cent a minute to pretty much any location worldwide. (Singapore e /Malaysia are both around 4c a minute, from a $10 credit top up)

              For me I stopped doing that, as all I use my mobile for is 2FA for banking etc. My UK number is virtual, via cloudsim, and my Australian number will become an esim shortly, I'll turn off roaming, just as an sms reception method.

              If you particularly need a virtual Australian mobile number, there's loads of options… That I havent used personally. On my post above sonotel and krispcall have a virtual mobile. Service from 3 bucks a month. Maybe start there. 👍

    • G-rig on 27/11/2023 - 07:30

      The main thing you want is data when roaming. Just use fb messenger, whatsapp, viber etc for calls.
      Guess I'll install it but won't be going anywhere immediately. When are these other countries being added - no Thai no deal.

    where does it ask you for the promo code???

    • md333 on 27/11/2023 - 12:33

      After you've signed in, there is a redeem promo code button in the app. It won't ask you, you need to go looking for it.

    Signed up & got the credit. Thanks OP!

      You are awarded $0.35 with each promo redemption.

  • illumination on 29/11/2023 - 12:35

    What a whacky promo code field… is it just me?

  • Thirtyfourfifty on 29/11/2023 - 22:37

    Awesomeeee. So handy to have when you get off the plane to order a grab/uber. Cheers OP!

  • hetzjagd on 30/11/2023 - 11:52

    Can't use it on my jailbroken iphone, the app says "Rooted Device, It looks like you are on a rooted device. Please note that you won't be able to redeem any promo codes (including referrals) due to account security reasons. Thank you for your understanding.".

    edit seems to be resolved with RootHide Dopamine

    • UnemployedDeveloper on 02/12/2023 - 09:26

      did you jailbreak with palera1n ? tryin to bypass Roamless 1 account per device policy so i can make several accounts

      • hetzjagd on 02/12/2023 - 12:45

        no I was originally on Dopamine and then I installed and used RootHide Dopamine to add the promo code then I uninstalled that jailbreak and switched back to Dopamine

    Thanks OP, this has worked well as a freebie. I.couldn't get that Tel-U SIM to work, so this one has saved the day.

    • illumination on 02/12/2023 - 03:13

      What issues were you facing with Tel-U?

    Just posting to say this Roamless eSIM is working well in Indonesia Jakarta. Connected to Telekomsel LTE with a really good Speedtest of 97.1Mbps down and 10.8Mbps up but 400ping. Tested 6:25am on 3/4 bar reception
    https://www.speedtest.net/result/i/5896483808

    …. And yeah sacrificed 300MBs or 99c of my valuable Roamless data for this test.
