Any of the eSIM options actually give you a US number rather than just data. ?
Thanks

thats awesome - thanks!I came across this website today, should help you choose a US service depending on your circumstances: https://prepaidcompare.net/
Quick Q - I have an iphone 14 pro, the wife an iphone 15 pro. Why would you choose the GSM option?Have a look at US Mobile: https://www.usmobile.com/plans
I go to the US regularly and use the Unlimited Starter Warp option when I'm there for a couple of weeks. $25 per month for unlimited data.
There are cheaper options too if you need less data.
Warp uses the Verizon network which works fine with my iPhone 15, I got 5G everywhere I went. The GSM option uses T-Mobile and I think some of the bands are missing on a UK/Europe iPhone so you might not get full coverage everywhere.
Alternatively, you can try Verizon's "Free Trial" which gives you 30 days of unlimited service if you've never used their network before: https://www.verizon.com/plans/free-trial/
You have to jump through some hoops to get it though - the app is only on the US app store so you need to change your location or set up a separate apple account. Also, you can only activate it once you're actually in the US.
It is handy having a US phone number though, which most "global esims" don't give you. Many restaurants will ask for a phone number when you arrive to text you when your table is ready.
Also.. I completely forgot to mention I am in Canada for 3 days at the start of the trip!
So any provider would need to have a 'roaming in canada' option
Looks like a PAYG add on unfortunately. Thank you thoTello now has roaming.
Thank you! No US number thoYou could get a Vodafone sim from esim.net for £25 each with 25GB data which will work in the US and Canada
Non US iPhones don't have the mmWave bands which Verizon uses for some of their 5G coverage in built up areas (US Mobile Warp uses Verizon masts).Quick Q - I have an iphone 14 pro, the wife an iphone 15 pro. Why would you choose the GSM option?
