Why haven’t I heard of Smart SIM before?
Because it’s brand spanking new and available only at Honest. After hearing people’s frustrations with weak signal and expensive roaming, we set out to solve those woes once and for all – and Smart SIM was born 🤩
Can I manually switch between UK networks?
Yes, but we recommend letting Smart SIM do the work for you for the smoothest experience.
Does a Smart SIM replace my existing SIM?
No. A Smart SIM supports your current SIM, there for when you lose signal in the UK and want to avoid expensive roaming costs abroad. Think of it like insurance, ready to kick in whenever you need it.
Do I have to be an Honest customer already to get Smart SIM?
No (although we’d love you to be 🤗). Smart SIM works alongside your original SIM, so you’d still be with your current network.Unless you’d like to switch to Honest, of course. Is now a good time to mention we’re one of the UK’s top rated mobile networks?
Which apps can I use with Smart SIM?
Smart SIM currently works with over 100 apps including WhatsApp, Google Maps, Uber, Citymapper, Monzo and Revolut.
We’re constantly releasing more apps, so stay tuned 👀
Can I call and text with my Smart SIM?
No. Smart SIM is a data-only SIM giving unlimited data for 100+ apps. You’ll still need your primary SIM to call and text.
The same goes for WhatsApp – for now, it's messaging only.
Does Smart SIM really work in 180+ countries?
Yes. From South Africa to Sri Lanka, Italy to India, Smart SIM has got you covered.
You can see the full list of available countries here.
Will Smart SIM always be £5/month?
We’re still in the Beta phase of Smart SIM and getting user feedback to determine its price when we launch more widely. Rest assured though, you’ll get plenty of notice if we decide to change pricing in future.
Is data really unlimited?
It sure is. Consider it the all-you-can-eat buffet for your 100+ apps 📱
What’s the ‘beta’ all about?
It’s still early days for Smart SIM, so we’re calling it a beta product while we continue testing and improving it. Over the next few months, you might notice some changes and experience the odd hiccup or two. We’re constantly improving and welcome your feedback anytime.
When can I get a Smart SIM?
Pretty soon when you join our waiting list (and even sooner if you refer 5 friends 👀). We’re rolling out beta Smart SIM as we speak and improving it everyday.
Is an eSIM the same as a Smart SIM?
Smart SIM is our game-changing eSIM, giving you unlimited data on 100+ apps on UK networks and in 180+ countries.
An eSIM is a digital version of the physical SIM card living inside your phone. Instead of a tiny chip, eSIMs store all your network info digitally. Think of it like the SIM card's smarter, more convenient sibling.
Can I make WhatsApp calls?
Afraid not. You can message to your heart's content, but for now, can't make calls.
Where else can I get a Smart SIM?
Nowhere. Smart SIM is a product we’ve built ourselves, available only with Honest. We’re pretty proud of it, tbh.
Which networks can I use in the UK?
Smart SIM works on EE, O2 and Three. Because why use one network when you can use three?
