Real reviews from SIMBA customers

Went to Japan recently with SIMBA Senior Plan. Roaming was a breeze with SIMBA in Osaka, Kyoto and Tokyo. I'm able to WhatsApp my daughter.. Thanks SIMBA for providing the affordable plan for seniors. I used it overseas many times with no issues. Great job!!

Terry Lee

SIMBA SIM card roaming was fantastic. Used in China without problem in accessing Whatsapp, Facebook and Google search. Also ever used in Taiwan and Indonesia with ease :)

Heidi Lim

SIMBA is prompt, efficient and has great customer service. Have been with SIMBA for many years and very happy. With the recent upgrade, the free extra roaming is the best!
