Airalo should absolutely pay you for this, you did a better walk through than their website, thank you very much! I’ll be using your code next time I buy another eSIM.

[Dannsandiego]

I'm an old guy and will be using eSim for the first time on an upcoming trip to Spain instead of Verizon's international plan. I've watched a number of similar videos and your video has been the most helpful. Thank you!

[wendemate]

Thank you so much! I can't tell you how many videos I've watched about using an esim and yours is honestly the only one I found that shows how to do it step-by-step, in clear, concise terms. I bailed out of most of the others because they were either needlessly confusing or going off on tangents. Thanks for your focus and clarity which is apparently a rare thing when making a video about esim! You made it easy!

[QualityofIrishlife]

This has been superbly helpful. Thanks for taking the time to explain this so clearly to us. Much appreciated.

[the.ditch.pickles]

Great content and easy to understand video. Thanks for doing all of our homework! Got the esim installed and ready to go on our European trip.

[marcellorenz]

Thanks for making this excellent “how to” video. I forwarded it to my daughter who is travelling to Europe for the first time in a couple of weeks. Your directions are straightforward and easy to follow. Just what she needs.

[rrxquyx]

Many thanks for creating such a good video and explanation of using Airalo. Easy to follow with clear and concise instructions. Installed my esim while watching and now it's ready to go.

[makaylah]

May the Lord bless you for your contribution to society. I was nearly in tears trying to figure this thing out

[cpjlpzr]

Took away all the stress! And I had already been in contact with the pros at Airalo. You are a great teacher!

[errolmartin]

I learned about this app yesterday while planning my vacation for this summer. The last time I travelled, it was so hard and expensive to get data while in the US. This app is a blessing! Your video is the best one I found that explained the process in a way that is clear and concise. Now my vacation will be awesome!

[wendywong]

This is exactly what we needed, downloaded the app months ago, now I know! Thanks so much for your very thorough walk through!!😊

[mslaurahuxtable]

You are the reason I purchased Airalo! Your video is the best tutorial I have ever watched -- clear, logical, good tone, no BS fill-in... They definitely need to pay you well! I had never heard of an esim and was confused and apprehensive... Thank you!

[tannisjovanovic]

This is the first video that I have come across where all of the info to utilize an esim is clear and concise! Now I feel super confident that it’s the way to go for us on our trip to Norway this summer. Thanks so much!

[Zv]

You are great help. I just purchased an eSIM for my trip to Greece in May. It’s my first time using eSIM. After watching your video I feel confident. Thanks Brian

[lucyhow]

Thank you for making this very helpful video. Your explanation together with the visuals were very clear.

[tishj]

helpful and a better choice than relying on our USA carrier for 'international' coverage; too expensive!!! Just need a couple of Gs to cover us when we are out and about and away from a wi-fi enabled rental car or hotel. Other videos i've seen are confusing. You explained things very clearly, step by step and were very attentive to any concerns your viewers might have. I also liked that you explained what to do AFTER the esim was installed. I will definitely watch again as we get closer to our departure. Thank you!

[kevindau]

Brian states that eSIM are “easier” but it is more than that. The ability to activate the eSIM while still in one’s home area and then to choose it once at one’s destination is so much better than having to buy a physical SIM at one’s destination and then try to install and activate it without using expensive roaming data with one’s native service. The last time I did that I was sitting outside a SBUX in the rain (inside was closed due to COVID) and had to use their wifi, which was spotty because I was outside the store, trying to activate my SIM.

[susanmayo]

As a senior using an esim for the first time, I found this very helpful. I think I am good to go. Thank you.

[chensh]

Honestly mate. Airalo should have paid you for this video. This is by far the best Airalo tutorial I’ve ever seen on YouTube. Not only it’s super clear, but you’ve also made it extremely simple.
