Re: eSIM
Are you saying that you moved from one network that didn't offer Esim to another that also didn't offer Esim....because the original network didn't offer Esim? MSF No. I moved to 3 UK the moment they made eSIM available to PAYG accounts. I don't live in the UK, so it's just a holding number for when I return. One of my parents was on EE and the other Smarty. I moved both to 1P as they have SIM slots. 1P offer identical EE service, yet without the crappy web interface and speed limitations. It was a no brainer.240Views0likes0CommentsRe: Three and Vodafone Merger Approved by CMA - Good News?
> Will this mean the end of the great value packages that Smarty offer? Almost certainly the Smarty brand will be shuttered. Why keep two challenger brands under one carrier, especially in such a small market that the UK is. Makes no sense. Either Voxi or Smarty will go.3.7KViews0likes5CommentsRe: UK SIM not working in Australia
It’s completely baffles me why anyone would recommend Airalo when the *sole use case* is to support MFA SMS codes from inept providers that refuse to use other MFA methods. The reality is Smarty is not the provider for this use case. They don’t support eSIM - locking out those in North America - and have onerous line obligation clauses which require multiple funding / billing events each 3 or 6 months (I forget exactly). Compare that to 3 UK who seemingly never cease lines without any chargeable activity, or even Voxi (who as of this week fully support eSIM) which requires one chargeable event a year and there is no contest. There’s even a support option with eSIM.net who offer SMS via eSIM for £6pcm. Stop recommending travel eSIM providers when they are clearly not a fit.7.1KViews0likes2Comments
