Install! Getting ready for a trip to London this winter. Your videos have been helpful. Thank you for helping me feel more prepared!
*Install* This is something I'd considered but didn't know it was so easy to use! We're hoping to use HolaFly next summer in northern Europe. Thanks for reviewing it!
Install! Always enjoy your videos! Keep up the good work. 🙂
Great summary of HolaFly, Nik! I like their Europe rates - very competitive!
perfect timing. - thanks for the discount!!
Yes I would love to see a video on this installation I and use.
Great video! Thanks so much!
Hello Nik and Allie,
We just returned from being in Italy for three weeks. We went with two 10kg carry-ons and a small backpack each. Your videos were extremely helpful in preparing for our trip. Yes we washed clothes ,a few at a time ,often in the B&Bs. Took the trains or plane for long distance and rented a car for the days spent in each area. For the trip across, I used the melatonin as you suggested and it worked great. My wife didn’t and was disgusted with how well I slept on the flight. Adjusted to the time with no problem. I did use the Holafly eSIM and it was great. I didn’t do my research with my wife’s phone beforehand, and her carrier had her phone locked. We got her a physical SIM card (TIM) that worked good.
Just wanted to let you know that we really appreciated your advice and it worked great for us.
One suggestion. Tell the people that if there is a chance for rain, put the umbrellas in your backpack. We were a half mile from our B&B (hiking) and 175 meters down when the clouds opened up and our umbrellas were in the room. But the sun was shining when we left.
Thanks again!
I love this! So glad we could be of value to you. Great suggestion about the umbrella!
I'm curious, would you be okay with me saving part of this testimonial for future use? If so, would you mind sharing your name so I could credit you?
Would love to see install. Always helpful. Everyone says something is so easy….its never easy, there is usually a step or tip.
Agree about 'it's easy' statement. Always easy when you already know 😂
Will definitely get the app and use this! Thnx
I just bought Holafly for MX, and South America. Install was not smooth, but done now. Activating later this week. Fingers crossed. 😊
Install. Thanks for the advice
I've never traveled outside the U.S. and this video was super helpful. I would love to see the INSTALL, just to make sure I don't mess it up.
I will have my Apple Watch when I travel abroad so will Holafly cover my cell phone and my Smart Watch or do I need something different?
Great video. Install would be nice
Thanks for the video. I would find an install video to be helpful.
Install, please?! Love how informative your videos are too! 😊
Install, getting ready for Vienna 😊
Watching ALL of your videos to plan for my trip to Europe - love them! Very helpful. Would love to see an install video. Curious - if I install/activate it a day or two before, (& use my US sim) how I switch to Holafly esim once I land? Thanks!
INSTALL plz, very interested in eSIM for an upcoming trip to Spain 🇪🇸 Thanks for sharing 😊
How much lead time should I leave for setting up an esim? A month ahead of trip? Thanks so much for this terrific information!!!
install
thanks for this video!!!
Hello, very nice video.... Do you know what the speed is? I am wondering if I can use it for working remotely from Mexico on my work laptop? Is there a way to use the data on a laptop ? I have iPhone 12 with windows laptop. Thx
INSTALL. I'll take all the help I can get! Thank you!
Install. Thank You
What about getting texts and incoming calls on my US number? Is there a way to get those if I'm on the e sim abroad?
I've seen a lot of videos about this and it's unclear; do I need to turn anything off on my phone when I arrive at my destination or anything on when I return or does the phone just know when to switch on\off my regular carrier?
Hi, thanks for the details information. I have T-Mobile and the carrier covers Europe. Typically when I am in Europe I can send text home to family without extra charge. With the eSIM can I still text from my phone back to the US without extra charge? Or in case of emergency can my family call me? Do I get a new phone number while I use eSim?
When I was in Austria and Germany last year on Google Fi, there was no phone resetting, it just says welcome to Austria and Welcome to Germany and back to welcome to Austria, etc. As you cross borders.
Hi Nik, I am from Argentina flying to the US 15 days, will Holafly include a US phone to call and SMS? Tks
Install please,I tried to use a eSIM last fall on a trip to England and could not seem to get it to work phone kept defaulting to my phone plan at home that ending up costing me a fortune,it was another carrier,we are going back next spring would like to try Thanks
Interesting way to do it.
Thanks for the video! Heading to Europe soon. All of our countries (10) are listed on Holafy's Europe plan. A few questions. If someone needs to call us from US, do they just call my US number, call my Holafly number, text me to call them from my Europe number or call on WhatsApp? I've never really used it but I have What'sApp. Does WhatsApp work on either sim or do I have to set up a new account on the Holafly sim? Do you recommend getting a plan for me and the wife or have her use my plan via hotspot? Does this work well for sending or uploading iPhone pictures as we travel?
Love your channel!
Ugh! Im having the worst time finding anything for New Caledonia. Literally no one has plans for them. And my new google phone has no sim card. Any advice!?
you have my attention
What happens if someone calls you on your regular phone number while you are using this? Do you have to cancel your $10 a day plan with Verizon? What do you have to do to go back to your normal Verizon plan after you return from Europe? I would like to see the install procedure also.
I bought one for a 30 day trip to Italy. I thought I got one for Italy. They gave an Austrian number which was 13 digits long not counting the country code. The data worked fine, but I thought it was a pain. If I had to verify a credit card with text messaging I couldn’t. I couldn’t check my text messages back home. 🎉It cost me $60. For $90 I could have used my own number. I won’t do it again. It’s not worth the trouble.
Install 😊
Can I make and receive calls in South America without changing numbers
But how do you get sms from your bank or other places that will send you verification codes?
Install!
Install ! Wondering also the best method for handling 2FA for banking apps, etc.
Only under WIFI put your phone on airplane mode so that no roaming can be done
Nik, quick question. I have looked into HolaFly and I am a Verizon customer. I also have an iPhone 14. Can you tell me what my settings need to be while using Hola in
Europe so I don't accidentally use my Verizon account.
On Iphone there is a toggler on each eSIM that you can switch on/off
Install - yes please walk us through it.
great idea - - - but limited phone compatibility, so not good for me. . . . .
Install please!
after my week holafly package finished, do i get back by original cellular setup when i come back home (Canada)
Yes!
Install.
Can I install the code and not activate it until I arrived
Install please. Thanks you.
Wish my iphone X was e-sim compatable.
INSTALL please… I’m looking at options for India

Why buy two eSIM cards? Install one on one phone and then use a personal hotspot for the second.

Sure you can use part of my comment.

Thanks Glenn!
HolaFly eSims are extremely expensive but I suppose they have to be to pay for all the sponsored content. My advice is to shop around before purchasing an eSIM. For example, I'll be visited the Philippines soon. HolaFly offers 20 days of "unlimited data" for USD$54. Alternatively, Airalo offers 30 days with 3GB for USD$9.50 with other data options available. Perhaps not a direct comparison but for the budget conscious traveller I wouldn't be choosing HolaFly anytime soon.
I was wondering about the comparison between those two eSims. Thanks for this comment.

This is massively expensive and bad value especially compared to a locally bought Esim or sim card. Cunning 20-day renewal at a huge price. I am going from Australia to Georgia Europe for a few months soon so have been studying the options for mobile connectivity. And this one doesn't even make the start line.
But in some countries you have to make specifically registers to use a sim, like in Germany for example. You even have to confirm your identity with someone
Compared to our Canada cell providers, this is a bargain. 😂❤
Or like in Costa Rica you have to go to an actual office to set your phone and show your passport Otherwise you cannot use the Sim card that you buy from any carrier and you are limited to whatever minutes or data it’s offer to you at the end especially on long trips it’s a bargain and the time save
Install
Do have to apply it the day you leave or can you install days early and then just turn on your eSIM before you board your flight?
Can you have more than one e-SIM? I am already using an e-SIM
yes
Both active at once?
Yeah, if you want. I'm on Iphone and it each eSIM has its toggler switch to turn it on/off (you can switch on both)@@Sibhusky
they're too expensive though ... compared to other players like mobimatter
you have to UNLOCK your phone before using Holafly
So, this is just a commercial for ONE company, and not a very good one.
