Any experience of using Smarty in Australia please?

Smarty sims still don't seem to work on iPhones in Australia, so can't be used for 2 factor authentication etc. This is a real problem if you need to contact your bank etc. Using an esim for data (and even calls on some esims) works fine, but 2FA responses are always made to your UK sim, so you're stuffed!

@ColinSm_3409738 Probably best not to use it because it will be extremely expensive - please see p20 of the Smarty Price Guide.

If you have a reasonably modern phone, you could try a Travel Esim - there are a number of companies out there offering them. They offer data to use while in the country and so you make calls via WhatsApp (or similar app). From experience with Roamless, you can also make a voice cll via the app, but this is not the cheapest method unless you really need to call a phone not via data)
