All orders received after the cut off time, will be shipped the following business day. We always make sure that your SIM card rental arrives a couple of days before your trip.
What kind of phone can I use?
You can use any unlocked phone that has the capability to work abroad. A 'locked' phone is one that has been restricted by software so that it can only be used with the original network or carrier it was manufactured for and can only be unlocked by the original carrier.
It is the customer's responsibility to check if the phone is unlocked. There will be no refunds if the phone is found to be locked.
