Asia eSIM FAQ for UK Travellers
- After purchase, you'll receive a QR code via email instantly. Scan it with your phone's camera, then go to Settings > Cellular > Add eSIM. Follow the prompts - it takes less than 5 minutes. See our installation guide for detailed instructions.
- Most modern smartphones support eSIM, including iPhone XS and newer, Google Pixel 3+, Samsung Galaxy S20+, and many others. Check our compatible devices list to verify.
- Yes. Your iPhone or Android runs both SIMs at once , your UK number stays active for calls and WhatsApp, while the eSIM handles all your data in Asia. Nobody needs to know you're abroad.
- For typical British travel usage , Google Maps, Uber, WhatsApp, Instagram, and the odd FaceTime , 1-2GB per day is plenty. Light users (maps + messaging only) need about 500MB-1GB per day.
Since Brexit, EU roaming charges are back. UK carriers now add daily surcharges of £2-6 per day in Europe, and even more outside the EU , that adds up fast over a fortnight's holiday.
Data-heavy apps like Instagram, TikTok, or YouTube can consume hundreds of megabytes in minutes. Without an eSIM, your carrier's roaming fees could turn a simple social media session into a hundred-dollar expense.
Every year, travelers return home to unexpected bills of €200, €500, even €1,000 for just a few days abroad. Some carriers offer "travel passes" at €10-€15/day, but even those add up fast on longer trips.
With a prepaid eSIM data plan for Asia, you pay a flat rate upfront. No nasty surprises on your bill when you get back. Just affordable, fast data from the moment you land.
- Our Asia eSIM connects to leading local operators providing 4G LTE and 5G coverage. Typical speeds are 20-100 Mbps download, enough for HD video streaming, video calls, and all apps.
- Absolutely. Use your eSIM as a hotspot to share data with your laptop, tablet, or your mate's phone. Brilliant for family holidays and working remotely from a café in Barcelona.
- Simply purchase another eSIM - there are no overage charges. You can also buy your next plan before your current one expires to ensure uninterrupted connectivity.
- We recommend installing your eSIM before you leave home while connected to WiFi. You can install it days in advance - the validity period only starts when you first connect to a network in Asia.
