Stop overpaying for roaming data in the UK and Europe

No one wants to land in a foreign country without mobile data. But using international roaming from your home carrier can be expensive, especially if you need maps, messages, bookings, email, and travel apps every day.

That is why My UK SIM Card exists. We make it easier to use your own smartphone in the UK and Europe without relying on public Wi-Fi or expensive carrier roaming.

With our eSIM or SIM card, you can:

✓

Use Google Maps, email, browsing, and travel apps

✓

Get a real UK mobile number for local bookings and forms

✓

Use UK talk and text while you travel

✓

Stay in touch with family and friends on WhatsApp, iMessage, Messenger, or FaceTime

✓

Use your phone for hotels, rideshare apps, restaurants, tickets, and travel changes

✓

Share your data with a laptop, tablet, or travel companion using hotspot

Whether you are visiting London, Paris, Rome, Edinburgh, Dublin, Barcelona, or several countries in one trip, our goal is simple: help you get connected before you leave North America.

Simple setup. Clear instructions. Practical support.

A simpler alternative to international roaming

Many travelers use AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, Bell, Rogers, Telus, or another home carrier overseas and only realize the cost after the trip starts.

A prepaid UK and Europe eSIM or SIM card gives you a clearer option. You choose your plan before you travel, set it up before departure, and use it after you arrive in the UK or Europe.

Typical carrier roaming

Can become expensive on longer trips

May rely on daily roaming passes

May not include a UK mobile number

Can be confusing across multiple countries

I inserted the card before they left the US and told them not to turn on the phone till the UK. I knew they could handle that! Wow, within a few minutes of landing they had their UK phone. Before they left I got them their phone number and topped off the card so they could call home. I had one question so I contacted my uk SIM card from my home and got a reply within minutes. GREAT OPTION FOR MY PARENTS!

A wise purchase that made our trip more enjoyable After two trips to Europe wasting a lot of time, unsuccessfully trying to use our Verizon phones, we decided to buy a My UK SIM card for two iPhone Xs. It was a wise purchase. The US cell phone dealers charge $10.00/day for each phone. It's only when you use the phone, but we used ours almost every day. These cards were more cost effective and worked perfectly in various cities throughout the United Kingdom and enabled us to call taxi drivers in London, make restaurant reservations, get information on some of the sites and attractions we were seeing without needing to know what seemed like a secret code with our regular phones. If you are traveling and own your phones, I'd suggest buying a My UK SIM Card. You will have a European phone number that makes your trip so much more relaxing knowing that you can call anyone with ease. We're going to purchase two again for a trip to Europe next summer.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My parents were arriving in the UK and knew very little about Sim cards, activation, etc. I put the card in before they left the states but did not turn the phone on. When they arrived in London, they turned on the phone, followed the few directions given to them and it worked extremely well!! I contacted the company twice with questions and got a response very quickly. Would use them again if needed.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I used the MY UK SIM card system for the first time in May 2024, and everything worked just fine (I make/receive phone calls only, no texts). I've contacted them for help once or twice, and they always respond quickly. I do think the initial instructions could be clearer, however, perhaps with an area specifically for customers in the USA who are traveling to the UK.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Trustindex. Wonderful product for a very reasonable price! Worked wonderfully our entire time in the UK. I am a 70+ year old who is not very tech savvy. But even I was able to understand and follow the instruction to activate the little SIM cards for our two iPhones. All our needed apps such as GPS, email were available and we learned that we could communicate with one another via voice and messaging using our temporary UK phone numbers when we explored apart. To call home in USA we were able to use the data to place a FaceTime call. It was truly worth the price and relatively simple.

This is the second time we have used My UK Sim Card. I won't travel to Europe without it! We were in Spain and Portugal this year for 2 weeks and had enough data for the entire trip. The process couldn't be easier. Land in Europe, pop in the sim cards, wait for a text message with your number and away you go!! No need to worry about expensive roaming fees or slow data speeds. Plus their customer service is top notch. Do yourself a favor and don't travel without My UK Sim Card!

When my daughter had some problems getting her top up to work, they were super responsive via email and What’s app. Would not hesitate to use again. I only wish they had an eSIM since my new phone no longer supports a card.

Don't travel to Europe without this! My wife and I traveled to Spain last April and used the My UK Sim Card. My UK Sim Card could not be easier to use. Land in Europe, pop in the sim card, follow the simple activation, and you are good to go. We each had 25 GB and after 10 days still had plenty of data left. We used Google maps, Whatsapp, Instagram ect. The coverage was excellent. The communication with the company is top notch. If you have a question they have a quick response. Always friendly and helpful. I will continue to use and recommend My UK Sim Card.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Trustindex. UK SIM Card worked great The UK SIM card worked exactly as advertised. The UK SIM card installed easily into my IPhone SE on the flight over to the UK. I powered up the phone when landing at Heathrow. I could make calls and use my apps as usual without the need to change any settings. On the flight back to Boston I installed my original SIM card, powered up the phone in Boston and everything was back as usual without needing to change any settings. I found it was easier to use Facetime rather than training everyone back home to use my new phone number. I had asked for the new phone number in advance of my flight so that I could give the new phone number to the taxi company. They called me ten minutes after I landed. It was a relief to have this UK phone number. I'll use the UK SIM card again.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is is the second time I've purchased from MY UK SIM Card and again, it worked perfectly. This time I used it exclusively in Poland (Krakow and Zakopane) and Germany (Frankfurt and Munich airports) and had superb connectivity. 12GB of data for a ten day trip and I used less than 6GB uploading content to Instagram multiple times per day and hot spotting with my partner and to my laptop. This was a much cheaper option for me than purchasing a comparable international data plan from my US Cellular carrier. Will definitely purchase again!

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is my 4th UK SIM card and it’s flawlessly easy….except when the flaw is on my end. This time, I spaced the (super easy and clear) activation instructions to do it in advance of reaching Europe and installing the new SIM card. Again, the directions are super clear and easy about what to do in that case. I sent a WhatsApp to customer service and they had me up and running within moments. Excellent service…product and support. Why would you use anyone else??

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. When we landed in Europe, we had a few problems setting up our SIM cards, as the data would work but not the texting or calling. It may have been an issue on our side, but nevertheless, we wrote to their support team on Whatsapp and had an immediate answer and assistance. The person there solved our problem and now our SIM cards work perfectly fine! Great customer service.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Was in Ireland and the UK for a couple of weeks. This sim card was just plug and play - worked right from the get go. A few days later, I did run into a problem and the service staff solved it for me quickly and to my favor. I would recommend these guys for sure and would use their service again in a heartbeat.

After this review, I did receive the tracking info, Thank you for the response. Priority shipping order placed on Jan 4th and received the package on Jan 9th.
