Have used their eSIMs many times over a few years and they always work really well. On the one occasion I needed support the response prompt and solved the issue very fast. I'll happily continue using them in future.

South Korea e-SIM, AUD 35 for 20 GB. Loaded to my phone before I left, activated as soon as the plane landed - no issues experienced, worked great the entire week.

What outstanding seamless service we experienced with Travelkon eSIMs. Travelled through 3 countries and the service was seamless throughout. The moment we landed in a new country, it just auto-joined the local network. Never missed a beat - no dropouts either. Highly recommend.

Great sim
Bought for a 16 day trip. A bit fiddly to set up as I found the instructions weren't that clear. Set it up a few days before departure. When I landed had to reset phone for it to work, however has worked brilliantly the entire time. Never been any dropouts, even when quiet rural. Couldn't check my usage the way they suggested, and had to use the data monitoring on my phone. Today's my last day and I'm sure I've plenty left- used for navigation/ maps and basic internet usage and used wifi where able as ample in SK.
