Everything you need for stress-free travel

Stay connected across United Kingdom

Coverage is widely available and reliable across London, the main cities and towns, connecting through an established UK network, with mobile coverage also available on many rail routes and a growing part of the Underground. The Scottish Highlands, rural Wales and remote coast and islands can thin, so keep offline maps for the countryside.

Using an eSIM in the UK

A UK eSIM keeps you online across Britain the moment you land, ready for maps, transport apps and messaging, whether you are visiting London, touring further afield or here on business. Install it before you fly and switch it on when you arrive.

London, the cities and beyond

London, Manchester, Edinburgh and the main cities and towns are well covered, with mobile coverage also available on many rail routes and a growing part of the Underground. Out in the Scottish Highlands, rural Wales, the moors and the remote coast and islands, signal can thin, so download offline maps before a day exploring the countryside.

How much data

A few days of maps, transport apps and messaging is often around 3-5GB, with a week or heavier use nearer 5-10GB. These are starting points, and actual use varies.

Travel eSIM FAQs

Mobile coverage is available across many Underground stations and a growing number of tunnel sections, but it is not continuous across every line or stretch. Download anything important before a longer journey in case you pass through a gap.
In the cities and towns, yes, but the remote Highlands, moors and islands can thin. Download offline maps before a day exploring the countryside.
Coverage is available along many main rail routes, but rural stretches, cuttings and tunnels can cause gaps. Download tickets and anything important before a longer journey.
Yes. You can be online as you leave Heathrow or Gatwick, ready for maps, transport apps and messaging, without hunting for a SIM counter or airport wifi.
Your selected UK plan can be used across the parts of England, Scotland and Wales included in its coverage, with signal varying by area and becoming patchier in some remote countryside.
A few days of maps, transport apps and messaging is often around 3-5GB, with 5-10GB for a week or heavier use. These are starting points, and actual use varies.

Top-up availability depends on the plan. Some eSIMs can be topped up, including certain unlimited plans, while others may require a new plan once the current one ends or runs out. Check the individual plan details for your selected option.

Ran out of data whilst away from home, instead of paying the extortionate rates of my network discovered Astaroam. Much cheaper and better coverage than my normal network. Very pleased!
