GBMisinformed The Ireland & Europe SIM Card does not work well in Ireland. It works in the cities in Ireland but not in rural areas. Telestial Inc. should be aware of this and inform potential customers. My sim card only worked in cities and I had no coverage outside them. In an emergency you would be stuck for want of a connection. Telestial Inc. should refund me the balance on my account, if they are a company that operates in good faith.

GBHORRIBLE SCAM ARTISTS - DO NOT PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM THEM I bought an ITALIAN SIM CARD. My order clearly indicates "Italy SIM Card" but when I received the SIM Card it came with a UK phone number. Called customer service. They claimed had I read the description more carefully I would have seen I was purchasing an International SIM card. It is purposefully fraudulent and misleading, as there would be no other reason to describe the product as an "Italy SIM card" as opposed to an "International SIM card that works in Italy." SCAM ARTIST THIEVES! STEER CLEAR OF THIS COMPANY.

GBUtterly disgraceful, product and service. Stay away!! The phone was 2 days late. It didn't work, after a half-hour phone call with their tech support (who didn't sound the LEAST surprised). I sent it back. They said it DID work; they would send the phone BACK to me. I emailed them my mailing address; they said they never got the email. After another phone call (hold for 20 minutes), they said they'd mail it back to me

GBMystery on Signal Strength In my area (Pagosa Springs, CO) There are only two service providers with antennas; Verizon and AT&T. It is my assumption that the Telestial Passport SIM uses AT&T as a service provider since Verizon does not provide GSM service. I also have an H2O SIM card that definitely uses AT&T. When I have both SIM cards enabled on my dual-SIM phone (BLU Advance 4.0) the signal strength bar graphs sit side-by-side. The H2O signal strength bars show 3 bars consistently. The Telestial Passport signal strength bars continually vary from 3 bars all the way down to zero even to the point of displaying the "X" symbol. Since I'm new to Smart Phones, I don't know how to resolve this problem. Any suggestions?

CATelestial used to be a good company but … Telestial used to be a good company but they have changed. For us in North America we used to get a U.S. number with our U.K./Global number. They changed that so the US number is $2/month and they make it difficult to keep your balance active to. When they made their service change they said they sent us an email (which I never received) about my old sim being inactive and having to get a new one. There are better international mobile services out there. Telestial also refuses to refund my balance to me as well. Go with a different company.
