E-sims are the go these days. So much easier than having to replace a physical sim and they work brilliantly. If you are travelling several SE Asian countries they switch between providers. You can buy before you get to the country you first visit and then activate upon arrival. I’ll never buy a physical sim again when travelling.
So apon futher investigation, what your mate is doing is registering the IMEI number as all imei numbers now are required to be registered in Indonesia as there becoming worse than strayla and it all ties into the credit system but thats another story .... He will register the IMEI and link it to your passport and therefore all internet traffic via that IMEI # is then connected to the relevent passport and you can get the picture .... Thanks muzza and will be into old mate next week 👍
$15 local SIM card works while you are in a taxi moving and you know the taxi driver is not taking you to the airport but to Lovina. turn the volume up you should see the driver turn around when Google map makes the bad sound dunk dunk for redirecting
yes cheaper to get a SIM card however if your using your phone for say work and calling people (not on W.App) who would not recognize or answer an unknown number then easier to go with a roaming package...cheap. 1GB a day and lots of calling time.
I find I need my own internet access while I'm in Bali. I frequently travel to Thailand and have a postpaid sim. I can pay an additional fee and switch this to Indonesia for a very low rate. Vodafone is ridiculously expensive. I'm in Bali in just over a week - and I'll be paying the new tourist tax. I love that you and a cold Bintang are never far apart!
I'm in a similar situation -- long term stay in Thailand, with a 7-10 day side trip to Bali, then returning to Thailand. In this situation, would you recommend purchasing a sim card for the short time I'm in Bali, or look to have the service transfered to Indonesia? ...and, moreover, how does one go about doing that?
I don’t feel like you need one as I went over and wifi is free everywhere and I go to Bali often and I do not ever need it. It’s good to be away from phones and having time without technology. Just relax and try and have time to you and use the motels wifi. Enjoy your time.
Thany you Monica for such great info and another video. This is out side the square but muzza knows me and this is important. They took pancakes off my favourite cafe in Druparti Street Seminyak . Do you guys have a favourite place for caramelised banana pancakes . I think Monica would be the best Judge 🎉🎉😂😂 🥞 😋
Isnt it illegal to change the imei of a phone ... like changeing the vin number on a vehicle .... should be no need to change the imei unless someone was not putting in a way to backdoor your data .... 🤔 ....
We got a sim card through Ketut last year and will do it again this year when we're back in August. Happy to do it just so we can donate a bag of rice. We may not use all the 35 or 40GB but its better than spending $10 per day for roaming. Definitely worth it. Another great video Muzza.
changing planes all-in-one day Telstra charged me $15 to enter Spain then $15 to enter France then $15 to enter Italy then all roaming $$ they are not on your side
Hi Murray, thanks for all the informative videos❤❤❤ Kindly explain🙏🏼 the ++ at the end of prices... what is it? is the plus plus only added at the end of a bill on already included in the price?
good advice Muzz ! i'll be getting a sim this year, even if just for scooter taxis grab gojek .. thought i was smart other years just approaching them side of the road ir wave rm down.. like last year we agreed on a price he had a nice green jacket on.. we get to the destinaion he quadruple the price wants to have a scrap makes a big scene then sone locals come over i pay a bit more than agreed (coz this individual's psycho) but they tell me the scooter guy is a gangster hes not grab gojek just has a green jacket, motor scooter mafia. That wont happen if we're on the app
Thanks Muzza,nobody has ever explained Pulsa,not every aussie can phone who they have to on Wattsapp.....Pulsa is a mystery...could you explain it if possible...particularly the fact that the SIM card sellers cannot provide it.
All iPhone 15 models have slot for a physical nano SIM and have dual eSIM support. So what was said starting from 6m55s into the video is not correct. Someone may have told you a furphy there Muzza! Otherwise good advice as eSIMs can't be beat for convenience when travelling. I look forward to buying my eSIM from Ketut when I next visit Bali. SIM cards are always less expensive away from the airport.
If your phone is from overseas EG not from Indonesia your phone will not work there is 2 Options 1 you need a Sim card that is a tourist Sim card which is up to 3 mounths , if your going to be longer than that you need to unlock your phone at the Airport with the goverment.

Hello 👋
I get by on wifi over there 😊
Same here, wifi is available everywhere. There is no need for local sim cards while on holiday.
E-sims are the go these days. So much easier than having to replace a physical sim and they work brilliantly. If you are travelling several SE Asian countries they switch between providers.

How long for 10 days Muzza 😮

I just used my Optus roaming when needed @ $5 a day which you can turn on or off as needed and the rest of the time the free wifi which is every where

They just scam me on sim card and charged me 1M instead of 450000
Went to the wrong place then. Sim at kw tours is only 250,000
Keep up the good work muz, and thank you for the tips and tricks for a hassel free holiday to bali
Hi Murrey, what phone did you end up buying in Bali and are you happy with it.? I need to upgrade,Thanks
@@paulelliott9405 samsung s24 and loving it

My Vodafone is 5 bucks a day extra not that bad I reckon

@@gumbie007gumbie007 Yes on top of your nomral account fee its $5.00 extra a day. If you go over your data limit its an additional $5.00 per one GB
Unless you are in the middle of nowhere, you don't really need a sim card as all hotels, bars, restaurants etc have wifi.
I don’t feel like you need one as I went over and wifi is free everywhere and I go to Bali often and I do not ever need it. It’s good to be away from phones and having time without technology. Just relax and try and have time to you and use the motels wifi. Enjoy your time.
Thany you Monica for such great info and another video.
This is out side the square but muzza knows me and this is important.
They took pancakes off my favourite cafe in Druparti Street Seminyak .
Do you guys have a favourite place for caramelised banana pancakes .
I think Monica would be the best Judge 🎉🎉😂😂

Just spent 2 weeks in hong kong. Bought a sim card at the airport. No issues with big bills. I suggest a local sim card whatever the country you visit
Isnt it illegal to change the imei of a phone ... like changeing the vin number on a vehicle .... should be no need to change the imei unless someone was not putting in a way to backdoor your data .... 🤔 ....
Thanks Muzz. We sought out KW Tours to get our SIM. Excellent service & works perfectly in Lombok.
Would love to buy 2 sims from Ketut and support local but we are situated in sidemen. Do you know any places over there?
Airalo

Great Video thanks Muzza, heading over in 5 weeks so will take my group of 10 to see katut and send some rice to the village yay.
Don't talk rumours talk facts
Useful information Muzza 👍
Like muzza says , best place to get sim is at KW TOURS , cheap and simple af 🍻
Ketuts 🛌 just behind the desk 😅😅 each time I went to see him he's always sleeping 😴 😅
hot spotting works really well for a family
changing planes all-in-one day Telstra charged me $15 to enter Spain then $15 to enter France then $15 to enter Italy then all roaming $$ they are not on your side
I normally gt a sim card when in Indonesia.... Heading to Jakarta next weekend and will b trying an esim this trip to c how it goes
Definitely getting one from kw, support the Bali people 👍
I'm with Vodafone so my roaming is only 5 bucks a day and I just use my usual data and no extra costs
Will ketut come to nusa dua to our hotel to do esim?
Hi Murray, thanks for all the informative videos❤❤❤ Kindly explain🙏🏼 the ++ at the end of prices... what is it? is the plus plus only added at the end of a bill on already included in the price?
The plus plus is service charge (which goes to the staff theoretically) and sales tax
What are the opening hours for kw tours
good advice Muzz ! i'll be getting a sim this year, even if just for scooter taxis grab gojek .. thought i was smart other years just approaching them side of the road ir wave rm down.. like last year we agreed on a price he had a nice green jacket on.. we get to the destinaion he quadruple the price wants to have a scrap makes a big scene then sone locals come over i pay a bit more than agreed (coz this individual's psycho) but they tell me the scooter guy is a gangster hes not grab gojek just has a green jacket, motor scooter mafia.

Thanks Muzza,nobody has ever explained Pulsa,not every aussie can phone who they have to on Wattsapp.....Pulsa is a mystery...could you explain it if possible...particularly the fact that the SIM card sellers cannot provide it.
Never heard of Pulsa sorry
Pulsa means credit
Is there a cost to register IMEI?
No
What about a Wifi
Only good for the hotel
