Highly recommended! Installing the eSim was very easy and the mobile signal was fast and highly reliable throughout our trip from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore. We were able to travel comfortably knowing that we can easily access our vouchers, messaging apps, Grab, Google maps, and plenty more. I would recommend this service to anyone traveling to the countries included in this eSim plan.

First time using esim in jb, got it on the day itself just before entering customs and activation was immediate. Instructions were pretty straightforward and easy to understand. Price was reasonable and 1GB was more than enough for my 3d2n trip in jb. I did not experience any intermittent connection or poor connection. Likely to use this again next time!

The guides were great, lunch was really good and an overall nice day! :) The free water and biscuits on the boat were also great :)

Works like crazy. No high data costs due to the extra e-SIM. Just close your primary subscription in terms of data.

Have used twice without problems. A little expensive
