Easy delivery of physical sims for April UK trip and recently just an esim in South Africa and all went perfectly. I've used prepaid sims a few times and happy with them.

This is the second time we've used Prepaidsims in Japan. Our phones are not compatible with eSims so we use a physical sim card. They are excellent value and started working as soon as we switched our... See more

Customer service was excellent. I would definitely use again and recommend to others.

The level of customer service was excellent. I had trouble getting my physical SIM to connect while in Japan however the tech support by Prepaid SIMs was excellent. At first my SIM would not connect to the local Japanese networks and I wasnt sure if it was my inability to work it out, it was a scam, or the SIM was causing it. However a continuous chain of emails to one another to sort it out worked reasonably quickly - which I really didnt expect considering we were in 2 different countries and were relying on emails and screen shots. The coverage itself was excellent while in Osaka and the surrounding areas. The only place I didnt have coverage was at a very high altitude and it was only for a period of a few minutes so I guess thats while it was searching, and I think there was one spot underground in a train station. However moving to a different location very close by rectified the signal strength.

DO NOT USE, given wrong sim and then they have not responded,

We ordered a 30 day SIM card with unlimited data to be used in theUSA and gave the correct activation date. Upon arrival and inserting the sims, neither would work. I contacted the company (whjcb was hard given the time difference and being Christmas week) and initially received a response saying that we had been sent the wrong sim and they could active the one we had been given remotely or be given a refund. Then radio silence. So we then didn’t have a sim card that worked and had to spend a lot more money than we had using this company to get one in the USA. I have since contacted them multiple times with zero response. DO NOt recommend this company.

Japan

As far as Japan goes, 'unlimited data' is not how we know it in Australia.
If you use a certain amount of gig I believe around 5 you get throttled down to an unusable speed. It's a thing in Japan. Don't watch any streaming services without WiFi connection.
Apparently it resets but that didn't help when I was stranded without maps. If this info was available upon purchase then It must have been well concealed.

A great SIM card!

In Feb 2025 we used a "30 day unlimited data" SIM which satisfied all our needs. The lack of a phone number was addressed by using WhatsApp for calls.
Which is why we're using the same SIM for our next tour in 2026.

Great prices, exceptional service

Besides the great prices and rewards for being a repeat customer, the best part of Prepaidsims is their service. No matter what your query is, even if it relates to my Australian carrier, Prepaidsims always replies to my emails promptly with adequate information to resolve my overseas SIM usage. It is rare these days for an online business that actually care about the correct functioning of the eSIM or SIM purchased to ensure the customer has a great experience overseas.

Contact travel companions

Was extremely comforting to be able to access data anyway.
Being able contact travel companions via messaging service like Whatapp made things very convenient.

I have used prepaid sims on several holidays and have never had a problem using them. They are invaluable for navigating (using google maps) and for local calls.
We have several more holidays in the pipeline and will definitely use prepaid sims.

SIM is exactly what I was looking for

The SIM is exactly what I am looking for for my 2026 travels. I had a couple of questions prior to purchase and they were answered immediately. Love the how-to-guide that came with the SIM. These were also followed up with email instructions.
