Tweet that tan, snap that sunset, and navigate the side streets with flair Review: Great to take when travelling abroad! - Love taking these SIM cards abroad as it allows for the use of internet without having to buy a local SIM, just be sure to activate it in the UK before you fly and keep it in your phone, otherwise you will lose internet connectivity! Found out the hard way when I placed it into a travel router and realised my mistake. Even when purchasing the 10GB pack, roaming will still give you the 12GB limit so the data allowance is very generous, provided you are not abroad for very long or are not consuming heavy amounts of data via streaming etc. At around 8-10 quid per SIM (depending if you buy it on a deal) these are a nice cheap alternative to roaming abroad or even some local SIMs in some countries, the fact it works in 71 countries is great as it would cover most popular holiday destinations for most people! Only downside is, you will not be able to make local calls in said countries if you need that functionality. But you can call & text UK numbers no problem. Review: Worked perfectly in Brazil and USA, however a word of warning - I've used these sims several times, without problem, just make sure you activate the sim in the UK before you leave an make a call or send a text message (or both to be sure!). Don't forget to change settings for apps like Spotify if you normally download over cellular, (those auto update playlists will quickly eat your data!) Worked perfectly in USA and Brazil However, be aware of third party sellers, I purchased my latest card thinking it was from desertcart, only it wasn't desertcart it was a third party fulfilled by desertcart, rather than getting a preloaded data sim, you get a sim with no mention of data, and a sticker on the back to call, text or WhatsApp to get your credit, the data never arrived and desertcart refunded me, luckily I had time to reorder. If you get the card pictured you are good to go, anything else I wouldn't trust it, as if you get abroad to find it doesn't work it will be costly to use data. ## Features - Sim card ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09QKP2DRX | | Best Sellers Rank | 26,459 in Electronics & Photo ( See Top 100 in Electronics & Photo ) 140 in Prepaid SIM Cards | | Box Contents | SIM Card | | Brand | 3 | | Brand Name | 3 | | Cellular Technology | 4G | | Cellular technology | 4G | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 731 Reviews | | Item Dimensions L x W | 13.2L x 9.8W centimetres | | Manufacturer | 3 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of items | 1 | | Product dimensions | 13.2L x 9.8W centimetres | | Service Provider | Three | | Service provider | Three | ## Product Details - **Brand:** 3 - **Cellular technology:** 4G - **Number of items:** 1 - **Product dimensions:** 13.2L x 9.8W centimetres - **Service provider:** Three ## Images ![Three - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51guGeMQ4eL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: When does the 30 days start?

Inserted it into my phone to activate it. Got the text messages with the number and everything, even downloaded the app. - Data seemed to work within the UK. However, zero balance was showing on my account (after registering the number, of course). - Contacted customer support, which confirmed that if my data is working in the UK, even though the balance is zero, it should work in Go Roam countries like the US (where I was planning to go and the reason for this purchase). - Went to the US. Data wasn't working (even though it is a Go Roam destination). Kept receiving notifications from AT&T or Verizon about how there is no data available and they can help me top up. - No data throughout the whole trip. Customer support informed that should I need data, I would need to top up. My explanation was that, since this is a pre-loaded SIM card and whatnot, I shouldn't have to buy more. - 6 days after contacting customer support again while in the US and sending them proof of this purchase, all I got was the following in an email: "Thank you for contacting us and sending us the proof as requested. We have attached the proof on the account." Needless to say, I still had no data for the remainder of my trip. It was my fault that I didn't heed the warnings of some other reviews on this page. I rarely leave reviews on products, but this time I felt that people need a heads-up should they decide to purchase this and essentially test their luck. I believe you would be better off purchasing a SIM from a different carrier that, even though it may be more expensive, would give you the peace of mind you deserve. ## Frequently Bought Together - Three Mobile PAYG Voice SIM Pack - 20GB - £10 - EE PAYG £10 Data Sim Includes £10 pre-paid credit, 8GB Data, 500 Minutes and Unlimited Texts (EE £10-20GB) - Vodafone SIM Card UK PREPAID PAYG £10 Bundle -7GB + Unlimited Mins & Texts + International Calling Option - (Love2surf RETAIL PACK) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/407399993-three](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/407399993-three) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-06-08*
