User Reviews

Users appreciate Fonus for affordable borderless data and calls with good voice quality and responsive customer support. It works well across many countries with LTE speed and convenient number porting. However, multiple users report problems with missing text message notifications, app usability issues, and call connectivity instability. Some find roaming text costs high and experience confusing app interfaces. Connectivity can be inconsistent, leading to missed calls and the need to frequently reconnect. While valued for its concept and pricing, the app requires improvements in notifications, stability, and usability.

Pros

Ability to use data and make calls in multiple countries with decent coverage and LTE speeds.
Affordable pricing with plans offering data in many countries and free Canadian roaming.
Good voice call quality when connections are stable.
Customer service is responsive and helpful.
Porting Canadian numbers to the service is convenient and works well.

Cons

Lack of or delayed notifications for incoming text messages causing missed messages.
App limitations including no integration with native phone and messaging apps, making usage inconvenient.
Intermittent connectivity issues such as calls dropping, no ringing on incoming calls, and needing to log out and back in to reconnect.
High texting costs while roaming in non-home countries and perceived expensive charges if subscriptions are not properly cancelled.
User interface quirks such as difficulty dialing extensions, confusing keypad layout during calls, and the absence of essential app features like usage tracking.

I had some success in calling from Paris France, but anyone that tried to reach me by text or call using my fonus number would immediately be sent to voicemail. Also, if you don't go back to your account to cancel your subscription after you are done you will continue to be charged for it even if you deleted the eSIM. This isn't made clear whatsoever, so if you insist on getting scammed at least make sure you won't continue being charged for services that can't possibly be provided.

2 years in, and still liking it But 4 down to 2 today Well, that was a month ago. I have been without notifications on text for at least a month. I have been given a few excuses and still waiting for the Google update. Support is always there and quick to respond, but the designers need to get it together to fix this.
