Your Europe SIM card will be set up for use based on the "SIM Activation Date" you nominate at purchase. We process SIM activations between 5AM - 6AM UK time (GMT). Please ensure you provide us with the actual date you wish to begin SIM use and insert the SIM in your phone on the date selected. If an incorrect date is provided, it may delay SIM activation. If your travel dates change or cancel, you need to notify us prior to the scheduled activation.
If you wish to purchase multiple SIMs with staggered activations. Please select a different activation date as you add each SIM to cart.
When you arrive in Europe, insert the SIM into your handset and switch on roaming. Upon your handset picking up cellular reception, you will receive some welcoming messages to confirm successful activation.
Your Europe SIM card comes with a pre-assgined UK mobile number. The 11 digit mobile number will be sent to you via a welcoming text when you first insert the SIM.
Recharges are not possible with this SIM. We recommend purchasing multiple SIMs and staggering the activation dates for extended coverage. To purchase multiple SIMs with different activation dates, simply select a different "country arrival date" as you add each SIM to cart.

In Europe
To make calls or send texts in Europe: It is important to use the correct country specific dial out codes. Eg. To call a number in France, you need to dial +33 followed by the telephone number without the first digit. To call a UK telephone number, you need to dial +44 followed by the telephone number without the first digit.
Note: If the incorrect dial out codes are used, you will receive a nil balance/top up message - This is because the network does not recognise the location of the number you're dialling. It does not mean that you've run out of credit.
In the UK
To make calls to UK numbers whilst in the UK, you can dial the numbers directly without any dial out codes.
Calls & SMS to Australia
International calls and sms to Australia are not included as a feature of this SIM. To make calls and send texts to Australia, we recommend using VoIP apps such as Viber, WhatsApp, Facebook Chat, Wechat, Skype etc.
Receiving calls & SMS from Australia
Your friends and family can call and text your assigned UK mobile number by dialling +44 7XXX XXX XXX. However we always recommend using VoIP apps such as Viber, WhatsApp, Facebook Chat, Wechat, Skype etc where possible.
