Talk me through how I get a sim in US please?!
I'm clueless 🙈

Last time I went I had data roaming with 3.
I'm now Tesco so they unlocked my phone for me...

TIA 😀

Oh I don't need to act daft 🤣

So I just buy a PAYG sim?

Yep they are up by the TVs etc you can get from $30 to 90 if using your phone in the parks etc I�d go for the one around $45 it lasts a month you can use it for google maps etc
Take the card to the desk there and ask them to put it in activate it check it�s working I used check the dibb and you are good to go
Just be aware don�t answer any calls you don�t recognise the number some will come up as scam but if you are in a restaurant que ask for the number as some will tex to say your table is ready etc

You can just get a 3 payg SIM card here and use that. �10 will get you unlimited calls, texts and 12gb of data for use worldwide.

Hi we�ve used the three PAYG sim for �10 for the month every year and had no problems

Only thing you have to activate it before you leave the uk so normally just send a message to one of my daughters day before we leave.
