Great Service and Easy Use
Great Service and Easy Use Got the eSIM info and instructions immediately and was able to add it to my iPhone with no issues. Once I arrived to my travel destination, was able to switch over and get connected to no major hiccups. Only issues I had were: * iMessages didn't work correctly, but worked around it using other communication apps. * Wanted to get plans for everyone in our group, but have to create new Ubigi accounts for each of them. Customer Service was able to refund my purchases soon after I requested.

So easy!
Setting it up and initiating the service once we reached our destination was seamless. I am not tech savvy and it was easy enough for even me!
