Contacts App > Tap or name or profile > Your number will be there
How do I check my balance?
You can check your balance by looking at your phone settings under data usage.
How do I recharge?
As described on the website, the eSIM is non-rechargeable. The only way around this is to buy multiple eSIMs and swap them out as you go.
Can I call USA or Australia with this SIM?
Unfortunately, this SIM doesn't come with calls/texts to USA or Australian numbers!
We'd highly recommend using data applications like FaceTime, Whatsapp, Facebook Messenger, iMessages, Viber or Skype to make calls and texts instead. This'll use the 10GB of data you have allocated to you.
Read this neat little article about ways to call home!
I'm having issues making phone calls or text messages
This SIM does not come with calls or texts as it's data-only! You can still receive phone calls or text messages though.
Can I hotspot/tether from my phone?
Yep, you can hotspot/tether from your phone.
