    When travelling, I found the FlexiRoam sims are not reliable for VoWi-Fi.
    Also some websites would not work without using a VPN.

    • xmagic on 28/10/2024 - 09:31

      Is there any Australian carrier supports VoWiFi on roaming? None I’m aware of.

        Boost. I use my Boost service in the US without a Boost international roaming plan, by using a local compatible data eSIM and Voice over LTE/WIFI.

        • itsmubi on 28/10/2024 - 11:36

          I'm Still not able to confirm if we have a dual sim phone, Can we use Data from 1st sim to support Vo-WiFi for 2nd sim? or you have to separately connect to Wifi. Could you confirm?

          • Topside on 28/10/2024 - 12:56

            @itsmubi: I had 2 sims (Boost physical sim, travel eSIM - Keepgo). I am back in Aus currently so can't check now, but I believe it worked with just the sims and no wifi. There are a few variables though, and you may need to try some different configurations. I am using a Samsung phone on Android 14.
            I set the local (travel) esim to Primary, but turn off VoLTE for that line (it's data only, no calls anyway).
            I keep VoLTE and WiFi calling turned on for my Boost sim.
            I definitely had the Boost service working when on WiFi. I think it also worked via the local esim and LTE/5G.

              @Topside: If I remember correctly VoWiFi didn't work when the data is on the esim on the same phone, but I might just set it up incorrectly. I'm also.using Samsung.

              I usually just bring a 2nd old phone for the data, and connect my main with Boost sim to it.

          • crentist on 28/10/2024 - 21:41

            @itsmubi: I did this a few times with Boost and an iPhone 13 mini.
            Wifi needed to be separate, so I'd use external wifi or hotspot with another phone.

            Although on my last trip to Japan I discovered an odd wrinkle that I was never aware of - local carriers can block VoWIFI.
            I couldn't get any VoWifi via a Rakuten portable wifi thingy, and had to hotspot myself through a different travel sim.

            But worst of all, another wrinkle I recently discovered with Boost - on roaming, a switched off phone does not have a ringtone, voicemail, or missed call notifications. Anyone trying to call will be instantly disconnected and you won't know about it.

            Normally that wouldn't matter much, but I discovered it during a job search, when all my leads suddenly went cold.
            I was unwittingly offline and blocking everyone for about 3 weeks :(

            • itsmubi on 29/10/2024 - 08:38

              @crentist: So far I have been doing the same (Hotspot from another phone or wifi device to main device for VoWiFi). I thought maybe there is any solution and I wont need to carry two phones.

      Tried to use this recently after having successfully done so once in the past. They wanted to do KYC but needed to chat with a consultant, was a slow process so gave up. Went to leave a review and saw another review with a similar experience.

      • G-rig on 28/10/2024 - 10:02

        Free benefit for those with a 28d card. My price protection claims easily covers the free.

        This deal won't be around all year and multiple counties but handy if leaving soon .

        They wanted to do KYC but needed to chat with a consultant, was a slow process so gave up

        Not sure what all that is but would you experience that with flexiroam too?

        • Poor Ass on 28/10/2024 - 11:37

              @G-rig: I actually have 3 cards that got the price protection they all originally from GE money / latitude

              but I had to give up one of them because can't justify $10.95 a month fee

              now I got Coles legacy and 28 degree……. issue with Coles one is that has to be same retailer but get 2 years to price match but advantage is no fee

              28 degree has fee but 1year can go back to any retailer to price match

              • G-rig on 29/10/2024 - 10:20

                @Poor Ass: 28d is great, well worth it. People complaining obviously don't have the grandfathered option of price protection.

    Are the 3 months the time you have to activate the Sims? Let's say I buy it today and activate it in mid Jan so it stays active for another 30 days?

    And how to change currency to AUD?

      No. I’m heading there in Feb and asked live chat about this. They said you have three months to activate the SIM from purchase, which from today would be 28th of January. The live chat agent said you’ve gotta activate it one day before expiry, and it is then valid for 30 days after that. Therefore, 27 February would be the last possible date of validity.

        This is correct and just confirmed with my contact as well. Expiry mentioned in the OP relates to 'activation' expiry. So you have 3 months from purchase to activate. Then once activated, the eSIM validity period applies. Made a slight alteration to the OP for clarity.

        • lars06 on 28/10/2024 - 23:33

    Just a warning, you need to create new accounts for each new esim you want to buy. for e.g. if you plan to use two plans on two mobiles for you and your partner, then you need to create two accounts and get these. They don't do refunds!

    • Poor Ass on 28/10/2024 - 14:16

      Either

      Best to install and activate day before you travel as some places may have restricted wifi in the airport then ya screwed for an internet connection to activate

    • sween64 on 28/10/2024 - 18:56

      I have found it best to activate your eSIM on arrival. Some SIMs require connection to the network that you will be roaming on. You can usually connect to airport wifi and activate the SIM then.

  • MeesusEff on 28/10/2024 - 13:12

    Is it relatively easy to activate?

  • wetsandwich on 28/10/2024 - 13:20
    +2

    Free is good, I'll get that part out of the way.

    However it is normally much cheaper and more efficient to just buy a regular sim card when you arrive at your destination.

    I tried one from one of these companies when I was in Thailand, and even though it was advertised as a 'Thai travel sim', it was actually a Hong Kong service with roaming, which meant the service was very slow, dropped out all the time, and some apps in the google store were 'unavailable'. It also cost about double the equivalent local SIM, even if you paid maximum airport prices :/ . I don't know what I expected, but at least a native local SIM would be a good starting point. I eventually bought a 'real' 5g SIM and suddenly life was worth living again.

    I cannot think of why a tech savvy person (Ozbargainers usually are) would want something that's basically the shoddy and expensive convenience store version of the product.

    With most of these you're basically paying 2 months worth of money but getting 1 week worth of data. Then when your 3gb runs out will you buy another one anyway?

    • littlesoldier on 28/10/2024 - 13:35

      you can have multiple plans activated at the same time
      eg. I bought 3 x 3GB same plans in last CR deals
      meaning I can have 9GB in the same period

      However as you say, these plans are pricy and speed isnt great
      I personally wont pay for it and prefer to get a better travel sim via other providers

    • illumination on 28/10/2024 - 13:52

      Mostly agreed. The deal here is that it's free. Would never pay normal price for this.

      However, the arguments for using these would be…

      • Not wanting to waste time scrambling for a SIM on arrival (you can set this up upfront)
      • Wanting to use an "anonymous" SIM that isn't registered to anyone
      • Preferring eSIM over physical SIM (maybe you don't want to remove your own aus SIM which is a physical SIM, since most phones don't support dual eSIM)

      I tried one from one of these companies when I was in Thailand, and even though it was advertised as a 'Thai travel sim', it was actually a Hong Kong service with roaming, which meant the service was very slow, dropped out all the time, and some apps in the google store were 'unavailable'.

      Speeds may or may not be affected by using a roaming/travel SIM - it depends on whether roaming partners are de-prioritised. As far as I am aware, it happens in some countries but not all.

      Unavailability of apps sounds odd - do you mean you couldn't view a particular app in the Play Store? If so, it's got nothing to do with where your data is from. It's to do with the country of your Google account (not sure how it works on iPhone but presume it's similar)

      Being unable to use an app on the data though? Yea, that can happen. TikTok often doesn't work on HK-based SIMs
