Review summary

Users appreciate Firsty Travel eSIM's free tier via ads and affordable flexible paid plans, with generally good customer support. It serves well for basic messaging and maps when traveling. However, many reviews report slow free speeds, occasional service outages, technical bugs, and difficulties managing eSIM profiles. Pricing clarity and multi-device use also cause frustration. Overall, it is a useful backup eSIM service but reliability and speed issues limit full satisfaction for some users.

Pros

Free data option by watching ads for essential uses like messaging and maps.
Affordable paid plans with flexible daily options.
Responsive and helpful customer support (often mentioned named person Mary).
Ease of eSIM installation and use abroad for basic connectivity.
Useful backup data service for travelers and emergency use.

Cons

Free data is often too slow or nearly unusable for regular browsing.
The app and service have bugs causing sudden loss of internet connection or app functionality.
Complex account handling when using multiple devices (need separate accounts).
Issues with eSIM profile removal and reinstallation causing device limitations.
Pricing inconsistencies and unclear daily data limits or coverage zones.

2026-06-10	Je*****	Absolute GARBAGE and a total waste of time. They advertise "free internet" but use a scummy dark pattern trap. The app runs a completely useless countdown timer while entirely deadlocking your connection if the phone doesn't have an active primary carrier. Pressing 'Start' just brick-walls you and dumps you into a broken support loop. Blatant FALSE ADVERTISING and DECEPTIVE MARKETING. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS JUNK. Reporting this to the Google Play Store immediately followed by permanent deletion!
