eSIM
I have tryed quite a few eSIM and this is the first one that works as it should so I am going to stick with it thanks Honest mobile 👍👍
Not up to the task
I purchased this as my work takes me to places where my O2 coverage is low to non existent. This was supposed to help me join other networks but only succeeded in negating my own signal. For me this was a complete waste of money.
It doesn’t work
Once again in a low signal area for both Primary and Secondary service. Iron bridge by the way. Neither allowed WhatsApp or phone to work. So really the claims are not valid. Or am I missing something. Same in Scotland, Lakes, Wales.
Congratulations
I’m genuinely not sure what to congratulate you on first. Marketing a product that simply does not work or offering a pricing structure that makes it virtually impossible not to sign up for a year!
I bought it for a trip to Europe . In 3 weeks in Italy and France it did not connect to a data signal once. Back home and it still doesn’t. If you are frustrated at the poor coverage in the Uk and are looking for a solution this isn’t it! My advise, accept it and get on with your life.

Great for business owners on the move
Only had this for a week, I’m testing out the £10 per month plan and then I will be paying for the annual plan at £45. It’s not worth it for everybody but for me it’s very handy.
I run a delivery business, I take payments on sumup and square while on the move which are able to be used because they are supported apps. On my downtime I also use uber and deliveroo to earn a bit of extra income in my quiet times which it works spot on with these. WhatsApp is great too as sometimes I can’t chat to my customers when I am in a dead spot area but I can go through all the networks and see which ones work!! The bad reviews here are obviously people expecting it to work as a normal primary sim and want to scroll social media etc.. that’s not what it’s for!!! Trust me it has saved me a few times this week already!!!

The best data roaming eSIM
I have been travelling Central and South America and it has been great, the customer service is amazing if you ever need help you speak to a real human! It’s saved me so much money as well. As a solo female traveller it’s important to feel connected and safe this eSIM has given me peace of mind everywhere I travel! I have been recommending it to everyone!

Upgrade
The so-called upgrade to Smart SIM 2.0 has wasted 30 minutes of my life and it is still not active
The great climate con
I don’t need to be told how much carbon is removed from the atmosphere when the world needs substantially more of it, not less! More CO2 leads to massive re-greening of the earth’s surface! There is no climate crisis!
Rural areas
Unfortunately does not work in rural areas
Poor in Canada
Bought the annual subscription for a trial on a trip to Canada - complete waste of money had 3G for some of the time and 4G for about 4 hours and rest of time did not have any signal at all. In end bought a local eSIM and it worked on 5G no problems so I won’t be renewing at the end of the period.
Doesn’t do as much as touted
I find myself switching to and fro between my primary sim and honest, when apps I have won’t open on Honest. I won’t be renewing that’s for certain.
No signal
I am currently travelling and have no signal. I was in Italy in June and no signal. I don’t seem to be able to use when travelling. It’s not much good in UK either
I don’t see any advantages
I got this when it first came out i honestly do not see any difference in data performance i am on Vodafone even with the three mobile merger the coverage is not great but my honest mobile sits on EE only which is the same coverage as Vodafone it never goes on to O2 i dont think I will renew when it comes around

Love it… I think?
Call as there is no service when I’m picking up my kids from school so I can’t do any work or occasionally play a game or two.
Bought it my phone worked more often than not. I think it’s great.
Why three stars rather than five is because I don’t know it’s working if it had some sort of colour at the top or could somehow tell me that I’m on Honest Mobile rather than my own network while I’m using it that would be great because I don’t really know.
Therefore, unless I’m in a bad situation and I have re-sign up for the rest of the year, I’m just guessing until I lose it again and they need it if that makes any sense
Be nice to know it was working when it’s working because I think it works well x

Stopped working whilst abroad
Was using whilst on holiday for directions using google maps after a week it stopped working. Contacted customer support who couldn’t help paid for a year will not be using again, waste of £45 will not be renewing.
Seldom works
I have had the virtual sim for a few months now and travelled in the UK and a number of European countries. The mobile settings show the sim is connected to a network, however I am unable to connect to the internet. On the face of it it looks like it is working but it in not. I have tried to rectify using the Honest guides but to no avail. No reply from customer service.

Absolute waste of time and money
It doesn’t work
It doesn’t work. When I have been a location with poor O2 signal the Honest SIM did not improve matters. This has been the case at several locations both in the Uk and India
Review
No good doesn’t do anything might be user error
But I don’t think so
But I don’t think so
Waste of time and money
I was hoping this would automatically change to a better signal, it does not complicated to go into mobile settings to find the better signal on another network. I have on my phone around 8 months, just cancelled with 4 months left. Don’t know the point of the app once the smart sim is installed.
