⁉️ATT Prepaid SIM FAQ
First things first... Activation
Give us your Activation Date ✈️
You will be prompted at checkout to select the Activation Date for your SIM.
Your Activation Date is the date that you will need your SIM to be connected for use.
We recommend choosing the date that you land - keeping in mind that we activate on the date you selected at 2 pm AEST (4 am GMT). Your SIM will not work unless you have given us your activation date.
Once activated, connection to the network can take anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours.
If you are unsure, you can choose an estimated date and reach out to us to change it 🗓
How does activation work?
We will activate your SIM card on the date that you provide during checkout.
Once you arrive at your destination country, insert the SIM into your device.
