PhoneBox Canada Prepaid SIM Card | Choose from 5GB, 20GB, 35GB, 45GB| No Contracts! 5G Data, Affordable Plans! Talk, Text, Data for 30 Days! No overage fees! Unlimited International Text!

Very rarely review but thought it was worth it here - I tried this out as despite quite a few bad reviews, it looked the best option for a short trip to Canada. It did actually work very well and consistently. I did follow the instructions to the letter, as it does seem like the timing of activating the sim, getting the number, and it actually working when you arrive really does matter. So thumbs up.

Yes the SIM card works OK but customer service is poor, you don't know how much data you have used or when its running out. Plus they carried on taking money from my account after I returned to the UK, even though they said the account was terminated. I would never us Phonebox again.

SIM card working perfectly

Beware... !! Please double-check this product... When I tried to activate the SIM card in Canada, my credit card was blocked - fortunately - because since then there have been multiple attempts by person or persons unknown to pay for dating and porn site access... Beware... !!

It was quick to arrive and pretty easy to setup. You just need to make sure you know which province you are going to and then choose which package you want. This is why it isn't 5 stars, the package sizes when I used it were 5GB, 20GB, 35GB and 45GB. Which is not very helpful if you want a middle ground of like 10GB or 15GB. But other than that it works well and you can set a date in which it starts from. You also get sent an email with a phone number that you use with it.

Tried many variables but did not work. Waste of money. Will return when I get home

This sim card only works in Canada. Even the international texts only works from Canada. In addition prepaid plans cannot be refunded. The customer service is quick to chat and was able to answer all my questions.

Once you purchased and you get your phone number make sure you get into your account and if you don't want to automatically renew you cancel the auto renew payment option in your account. Don't just email them to make sure.

Traveled to Banff and several National Parks, sim card worked great. Event though on Amazon picture said $5 to purchase-it is a sim card without any data or service yet, you have to register on online following the instruction upon receipt of package. So signed up online, enter the dates while in Canada, select the DATA in GB - I chose 7GB/CAD$20 (only used about 2GB), i have iPhone 11 - unlocked phone. Reviewing the purchase - this was done thru "PHONEBOX" website. When landing in Calgary, inserted sim to iPhone, worked. as in national parks, cell pone signals are limited to none. GPS like Google map worked very well. Was very helpful with good internet speed, searching for sites and restaurants to visit.

Thank you

Funcionó desde que aterricé en Canadá.

Had a trip to Canada for one week so I purchased this SIM card expecting to buy the one week plan that was advertised on their website. On the day I arrived in Canada, I activated the SIM card, but the one week plans weren't available, only the monthly plans. Tried to contact support but all they asked was do I have a SIM card. No follow up at all. Ended up signing up for the prepaid 30 day plan which was more than I had planned to spend and needed. Terrible experience. Other things to be aware of is calls to the US are charged at a rate of $0.45/minute. You can avoid that by using a VOIP service like Google Voice. Cell service was provided by Rogers.

Sim card number keeps stating its invalid and the app doesn't work, waste of money
