User reviews

Scam

None of this works properly. Your account will be endlessly “accidentally deducted and they’ll just cancel your outstanding services and bundles. Useless support staff

Great

Great that you can check your data via an app! Good service from Melon in general

The only feature missing is an iOS home screen widget showing my data balance, so I don’t have to open the app to check it. Will rate five stars once that’s added!

Don’t think about it… just say no!

While it seems convenient at first (bear in mind they aren’t offering anything particularly new or novel), the actual network is utterly terrible. Don’t have signal much of the time and the call quality is awful. Latency on the 5G network is laughable. The pricing is not comparable to other networks either. And the support is dismal on a good day.
