Easy to activate by going to website given on sticker on the SIM. They don't ask unnecessary details like IMEI or brand of your phone. Sent them activation request at 9am and got activated same day around 4pm.Only problem is the phone number they provided is a New York number and using such a NY number in San Francisco raises unnecessary questions from people who suspect a prank.Seller TSIM price is on the higher side compared to other sellers for similar sim cards. But if you're in a rush, go for something you know than something unknown.

I live in Japan and was able to get it shipped there so I would be ready when arriving in the US. Although the card it comes with is not official T-Mobile, it worked on that network. I activated it before leaving Japan for the US. I got fast speeds in Pennsylvania and in New Orleans. It was slow at LAX but I didn’t care because I was leaving. Great job to the folks at Tsim! I hope you stay in business for a long time because you are providing a product that people need. BTW, you DON'T need a T-Mobile app to use this card.

Before the purchase, I was skeptical because of the mixed information reading from the review. But since this is an affordable option + fast shipping, I decided to give it a try. Overall it works fine, and here are my experiences and takeaways:1. I think this card goes through tmobile network, but it's not official tmobile account, so you cannot get support from tmobile.2. The card needs a pretty old school online activation, which could take up to 24 hours to be able to use it. So please prepare lead time for that if you want to start using it at a give start time. In my case, I submitted my form at around 7PM, and the card was activated around 11am-ish the next day. I bet they have some real person activating it.3. I did receive an email confirmation after activation, which is good.Overall, no problem after activating it. it's just the activation process seems a bit sketchy, but it works.3.

TL;DRTHIS IS A SCAM - GET A REFUND FROM AMAZON (worked for me)Don't believe the Q&A on this page. There is NO high-speed data available on this card. Only 2G. If you need anything else, you have to get this package directly from TMO (for roughly double the price at time of writing). TMO directly will have 5G.It will look like a technical issue to users with no knowledge of how mobile networks behave technically because when you move from one cell tower to another, it can sometimes take TMO a couple of minutes to correctly limit your speed to what the seller of this card is paying them for. This results in short intervals of 4G/5G availability. However, this card is only enabled for 2G and once that cell tower has checked in with the central database to see if the SIM is eligible to use 4G/5G, it will block any and all connections using those technologies (even emergency calls).The tech support from the seller plays the con by giving you lists of things to do (with 48h+ response times), none of which will ever work because they have contracted only 2G for the SIM they sold you. They know this and THEY ARE LYING TO YOU. They hope you don't figure it out until it is too later (ie before Amazon's return window closes) or just blame yourself for not figuring it out or your phone for not working. But it is 100% THE SELLERS FAULT!

About to embark on our fourteenth trip to see family in the USA I ordered a 30-day SIM card from TSIM through Amazon. It was delivered to the family address in Las Vegas on the day we arrived and I was able to use the clear instructions to install it. Less than two hours later and we were up and running. So, 30 days unlimited use of data, calls and text. It was great value for money and peace of mind that we were never out of touch (coverage permitting - no mobile signal penetrates some of the canyons in the State and National Parks we visited).HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. I already have a diary note to order one for our next visit in November.

customer service ist non existant. have been trying to activate this SIM for the past three days. the instructions were very simple, we just had to send in a picture with the SIM cards. received an email after two days that the card has been activated and a phone number but it is not active. the seller will not send any contanct information just directs you to t-mobile. customer service won't pick up. will be returning these.Update: finally managed to activate the two Sim with T-Mobile customer service after 5 days! I recommend purchasing a SIM directly from T-Mobile as the connection is very unreliable. There was no connection in Seattle downtown! When there is no connection you can't navigate or make phone calls. There were several instances when no calls could be made from both sims, it was unclear what caused the lack of signal since it did not work in city areas, so these were not calls placed in rural areas. The internet connection was also extremely unreliable during the entire month. We were within the metro areas of Portland and Seattle, so the is no excuse for not having a reliable internet connection.Will NEVER purchase again.

I received 2 bare SIM cards, sent the SIM numbers to the seller via order messages on December 19th evening. The seller replied within 1 hour that the cards will be activated. Later in the night, I got the T-Mobile "sign in to network" message, and that "my account is not recognized". But in the morning of Dec 20th, it was fully activated, 4G connection appeared, and I received my phone number. All good so far. Really takes a while to activate.Update after using for 3 weeks.Reception is ok. 4G in cities, more limited in parks or countryside. Measured download speed in good reception was about 20-30 Mbps or 2.5-3 megabytes per second. Nice speed.Sometimes you would receive spam calls - I just never answered those.Overall, I'm happy with the experience and I clearly saved money using this SIM. If you buy a similar SIM from an offline store, you're likely to pay $60+ for a more limited offer.
