Are physical SIM or eSIM options better for the UK?

Both options have benefits! Physical SIMs are compatible with most devices, while eSIMs provide the convenience of digital activation without needing to swap cards.

Where can I use the UK SIM cards in Europe as well?

Our UK SIM cards cover multiple countries, including England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland. For Europe, look no further than our Multi-Country SIMS. This combines the UK coverage with connectivity across European Union countries.

Where can I use the SIM cards apart from the UK?

Depending on the plan, some UK SIM cards also work in select non-European destinations. Be sure to review your chosen plan’s coverage before travelling to ensure it meets your needs.

How do I know which SIM card plan suits my needs?

Think about how much data, calling, and texting you’ll need. For data-heavy travellers, opt for plans with higher data limits. If calling and texting are essential, select a plan with generous voice and text allowances.

Can I order my SIM card when I’m in the UK?

Yes, you can order a UK SIM card even if you're already in the UK. SimCorner makes it quick and simple to touch down and access your data instantly.

Can I keep my New Zealand number when using the UK SIM cards?

No, UK SIM cards provide a local UK number. However, if your phone has dual SIM capability, you may be able to use both your NZ and UK numbers simultaneously.

How do I know if I’ve activated my UK SIM card?

Once activated, your phone should display network bars, allowing you to make calls, use data, and send texts. If it’s not connecting, restart your device and follow any setup instructions provided.

How long do the UK SIM cards remain active after the trip?

Each SIM card has a specific validity period (e.g., 30 days). Once this period expires, the SIM will deactivate. Check your plan details for precise information on expiration and renewal options.

Can I use any of the UK SIM cards on my tablet/iPad?

No, you cannot use our data-only SIMs and eSIMs with tablets or iPads.

Do I get charged international rates when using my UK SIM card?

No, our UK SIM cards include calls, texts, and data within the UK and often within other European countries. International calls outside of these regions may incur additional charges. Check your plan’s terms for more information.

Do I get unlimited calls, texts, and data with my UK SIM card?

Some plans offer unlimited calls, texts, or data. Review the specifics of each plan to choose one that matches your needs for calls, texts, and data usage.

I've run out of texts, call minutes, and data but still have credit. Can I still use my phone?

If you’ve depleted your allowance but still have credit, some services may continue at a reduced speed or limited access. Review your plan’s terms or contact support for options to renew or upgrade.
