Question 1

Can I hotspot/tether from your phone?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you are able to hotspot/tether from your phone to another phone or device.

Question 2

How do I check my Data Balance/Allowances?

Accepted Answer

To check your data balance you have used, you simply need to dial #932#. A prompt will show how much data you have used so far.

If you receive any prompt/text messages noting that you have zero credit balance then you can ignore as it does not relate to your data balance.

Question 3

How do I make calls and send SMS?

Accepted Answer

Within USA

You simply just need to dial USA phone number you want to call or SMS.

Overseas

If you are wanting to call a country other than Canada, Mexico, USA, then you can stay in touch with your family and friends by sending them messages and calling them via data based apps such as Whatsapp, Viber, Snapchat, Messenger, Skype, iMessage etc.

Alternatively, if you have purchased the $15 International Talk and Text Feature add-on, please make sure to dial using the correct international dialling conventions including any area codes.

Question 4

How do I recharge this USA sim card?

Accepted Answer

This USA sim card plan will last 30 Days from activation. If you are staying longer than 30 days and wish to recharge the sim you can do this by either going into a T-Mobile store or calling T-Mobile customer service 611 from your mobile handset.

Once you have exceeded your data limit, your data service will be restricted to 2G speeds and you will be unable to add data to your sim for the remainder of the 30 days. If you think that you are going to require more than 6GB Data we advise that you purchase our Unlimited Data USA sim card for USA.

Alternatively, as another option if you are travelling for longer than 30 days, you can purchase an additional USA Travel Sim Card based on the duration of your travels. If you are travelling for 60 days you can purchase a second USA Travel Sim Card and then swap them over at the end of each 30 day period (however, each sim will have a different phone number). You will need to put the arrival date for the second USA sim card approximately 30 days after the original activation date. For example, if you are travelling from 1 March to 30 April, you will purchase 2 sim cards and have the arrival date for the first sim card noted as 1 March and the arrival date for the second sim card noted as 1 April.

When buying 2 or more of the same SIM, you can checkout with the code: MULTISIM5 for 5% off your order!

Question 5

How do my family and friends call and message me?

Accepted Answer

Within USA

If someone from within USA wishes to call you from their USA phone number they would just need to call you on your US phone number.

Overseas

If someone from outside of USA wishes to call they would need to add the USA calling code +1 prior to the phone number

For example, if your phone number is 720 462 4562, then they would need to dial +1 20 462 4562.

Social App

You can stay in touch with your family and friends by sending them messages and calling them via data based apps such as Whatsapp, Viber, Snapchat, Messenger, Skype, iMessage etc.

Question 9

Question 10

What do I need to do before I depart?

Accepted Answer

Make sure that your device has eSIM compatibility. See our full list of compatible devices. Ensure that you have access to the eSIM email we have provided.

Question 11

What happens if I am travelling for longer than 30 Days?

Accepted Answer

The plan will last 30 days from the activation date provided. If you are staying longer than 30 days and wish to recharge the sim you can do this by either going into an T-mobile store in the USA or calling T-Mobile customer service on 611 from your mobile handset. The recharge cost will be in USD and may/will vary from the cost you paid with us for the first month. They will also charge taxes based on the area you are in. If you don't need the same plan for the following month or only need a few more days of service, then just let T-Mobile know and they will provide you some prepaid plan options to change to.

Alternatively, you can look to purchase multiple sims to cover your duration if travelling for more than 30 days. For example, if you are travelling for 56 days and are departing on the 1st of September, then you should select '2' for the quantity (qty) and add them to the cart. Then in the cart page enter the activation date for the first sim as 1st September and then press the "+" to enter the activation date for second sim as 30th September (you can select whatever activation date you like or even have them overlap, just keep in mind that your 30 days will begin from that date). You can then use the two sims for 30 days from the dates you have provided.  (Please note: each sim card will have a different phone number).

As long as you are aware your 30 days will begin from the activation date you provide for each sim, it's up to you what date you provide ensuring it covers you for your duration. It's fine to have services overlap.
