Went to London last month. Went to sim local and set up three phones within 15 mins and out the door. Got the 100 gig sim was over kill but worked like a champ.
Leaving for the UK in three weeks and your video really did help me. Thank you for doing the hard work so I don't have to!
I love this video. The information is gold. Your warm presenting style is really entertaining too.
Good job. Usually, when I click on a video, I don't get an answer to my question. You were very informative, thank you
👍 I thank you for your video on this subject which helped me and many travellers.Your video was a guideline for me in obtaining a SIM,when I landed recently at Muscat airport.❤ I'm from India.
Oh wow really? This sincerely makes me smile. I’m so happy to hear that I am helping other travelers.
I’m traveling all the way from Malaysia tomorrow and this information helps! Thank you.
Thanks so much. Happy I was able to help and enjoy your trip to London. Thanks for leaving a comment! ❤️
Your Vlog was quite helpful. Thanks mate.
Thanks so much now I've got it sorted what to do when I arrive, sabes me heapsnof tome researching!😊
Very detailed video really appreciated
Glad it was helpful! Thanks. See for more details and up to date prices the link in description!
Thanks a lot, you took away my worries about the sim card for europe
When you go to local shops in the UK you will find packages for £10 and online they have plans starting at £5!
That is correct! You are totally right about that. However, the convenience of getting connected straight away on arrival is for many people more important than saving a couple dollars on their prepaid Sim card for the UK.
Quando compra Sim Card em Londres tem que usar algum PIN, igual Espanha?
Is there any esim ?
No 1 coverage - EE, 2nd - Vod/Lebara, three and o2 are not good at all. If you staying at the City then any should be fine, but outside of City go for EE or Lebara/Vodafone. Also prepaid SIM cards are much cheaper outside of Airport area in Food Courts and Local shops.
Thanks for your feedback. I agree with all you say
Gave you a like! I'm traveling to London soon and was thinking of getting the 3 sim card
Thank you so much, Made! I’m very happy to hear that I was able to help you out. As you can see in the link in description in the detailed article that I updated today as well, that is exactly the prepaid Sim card for the UK that I would recommend you
Did the 3 sims card work out good for you?
@@keithf2653 It's a really good card. That and EE are going to be your best options
I clicked on your video in hoping to get a suggestion of sim card as I wanted to find a second opinion after Airalo, to my surprise you suggested Airalo at the end of the video 🤣 guess I'll stick to them then! I love the idea of eSIM because it would be so troublesome to store/lose that tiny little sim card.
Thanks for the very informative video.
Thanks for the information. I appreciate this video. I am loving your accent too. 😊
thanks mate, i'll be there in a few days, and i was worried about, now i got a picture to solve my problem.
Thank you, relocting to UK and this helps
Thanks man, your video is awesome and i can visualize now, what to do. I am coming from Canada 🇨🇦
Yes the UK provides a super bang for your buck in terms of domestic data. The best part: no need to deal with registration. The Dutch and anglo countries except Australia are still shying away from asking you for your passport and stuff.
It seemed like the guy at the kiosk (first stop) had the best price for s sim card (more in the vending machine and the sim card shop)> BUT does he help you get set up the way the people in the sim card shop will but the WH Smith people can't ? Thanks for all the info!
Question: do you need an internet connection to activate the Sim once you inserted it to your phone or does it automatically activate?
I also love to travel and come back again to Algeria, dear Tom♥
thanks for the video!! Very usefull
Thank you very much for sharing this information.
thank you! this was very helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Lebera mobile is a mvno operator on the Vodafone uk network
Get an esim online if your phone supports it.
This was very helpful! Thank you. Do you think it would be the same in the Manchester Airport? I heard there are sim card providers that are better with each locations when it comes to signal connections.
I'm not 100% sure, but will be similar prices. Yes true check out my complete guide for buying a prepaid sim card for the UK with a comparison of the mobile data network coverage maps of all mobile internet providers: www.traveltomtom.net/destinations/europe/united-kingdom/best-prepaid-uk-sim-card
UPDATE: Anyone wondering he is in T2.
Which terminal are you in?
Is it international?
Does terminal 4 have the same setup?
Great information bro 💯
Great video. Thank you so much.
Thank you for this video!! ^_^
Very informative video.
Thank you for sharing.
Where can you go in Heathrow Airport to actually have the SIM card installed for you?
Arriving on British airways, I'll have to check which terminal they are. Can't remember now. But I would think each terminal would have similar sales kiosks, correct? ee I heard was better and the cost from first location sounds better. Not finished watching yet. Haha
All terminals same sim cards
Thanks for a great info. I will be in London this Spring. I look to buy SIM or eSIM to navigate in UK and Europe for 29 days. Which carrier should I go for and is 10G is enough to use for 29 days. I mostly use to navigate the route, some searching and try to use Hotel WIFI for social media, no need call or text. Thanks
Hi Tom! Did the guy at the kiosk also sell a prepaid sim card that will work for UK, Paris and Italy? I would not want to buy a sim card in each city.
I want to know that too ( Uk, Iceland, Paris )
I will not travel in Europe next month am coming in Manchester UK soo which is good for my local use
The sims cards you get anywhere in Europe are those sim cards all ready to use
We're leaving on Wednesday for our language trip an don't know any information about out host families. Do I need any information about this or not?
Please I really need this infos😅
This does help... I'm going to the UK for the first time next month, (although I'll be landing in Gatwick) and I'm a little cautious about the eSIM cards just because I've never done it before. I was thinking of getting a SIM card from Amazon. Is there any benefits to one way or the other?
Good information
Thx you bro
You will find out smarty is the cheapest network to go for in the UK and travelling in Europe
What? Smarty? And where on the airport you think you can buy a Smarty sim card????
Back to school for you my friend
Who me?
I will be 4 days in London, 5 in Berlin and 6 in Rome, what sim do you recomend me?
What terminal were you at?
It literally says in the video! 😁
London is the best there technology is up ❤❤❤❤❤
Ok. Thanks
So where can i find the cheapest plan like 10 pounds? All i saw is 25++
I will be having a HUGE layover in Heathrow before my flight to Paris but will come back to the UK in a few weeks. Is there a way to buy sim cards in the terminal or only after you go through customs?
Is that a rimowa?
Yes, I have a Rimowa and I am traveling with it for many years. It is completely battered and bruised, but it still functions like i bought it yesterday.
Can we get Holafly or Airalo physical sims at Heathrow?
What are the documents required for this
Man, i need a SIM card for IPhone 13 for all of Europe for 30 days. Which one should I buy?
