Hi, I will be travelling in Europe in few months time for 3 weeks and need to get travel SIMs. Main requirements
Would any travel sim provider in Australia support the above requirements or would be better to buy SIMs in Europe (the UK)?
Thanks in advance
I went to UK, Netherlands, Austria, Switzerland & Italy last year and bought 3UK Sims from TravelKon. Worked well, no issues.
You can wait for a sale like this, which they have regularly. The 3UK Sims are listed under Physical Sim - Europe - UK & Europe (71 Countries) 3UK.
Thanks. Did you use both data and voice services?
I've used this one, both data and voice, in Switzerland, Germany, France, UK, worked as described
Yes, I bought 3 sims and used both data and voice to call each other. Didn't run into any issues throughout the trip.
I also got the E-Sim from this deal, but it doesn't work in Switzerland. I only used this for data, not calls, so can't comment on how the coverage is for voice, but having the extra data was very useful. Remember to cancel/use disposable Revolut card.
Switzerland is neutral…
I am going with roamless. There is a 15+15USD promo at the moment and has per MB pay as you go roaming to most countries
My travel mates are going with travelkon.
Have a look at Lyca Mobile UK. I just got a 25GB (12GB in EU), 30 days voice + data eSIM (they also do SIM) for GBP5.
Germany and Switzerland are listed in countries you can call from UK. I can't find list of countries you can use voice and data in. Germany for sure because its in EU. Switzerland isn't, so who knows.
Other plans:
5GB GBP2.50
50GB GBP7.50
100GB GBP10.00
Unlimited GBP12.50
Price doubles after 30 days. Still a good deal, maybe. Cancel and buy another plan on partner's phone. We only get one plan at a time and hotspot.
If you're flying into the UK first, buy them there at the airport. Far cheaper. Generally Three.co.uk offer large data packages that can be used across Europe.
You can also get them from resellers on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com.au/TSIM-Destinations-Including-Europe…
