I have just purchased my first WorldSIM card and the product is exactly what I am looking for. A real must for any world traveller. Daniel from customer support has been extremely helpful and supportive. A great experience!

“A useless service unable to connect in any country”

World sim is useless, did not work in either New Zealand or Canada. Contacted customer support and received some instructions which I followed without success. I tried calling the help line numerous times with no answer. I ended up buying local sims in New Zealand and Canada. World sim is a useless product do not buy

Easy to use and it looks nice. Very practical with its double SIM card slots when you're traveling in different countries.

Hi Damini,

It seems you didn't check your details properly.

You indeed called our Indian sales team twice but since the person was not able to pick up your calls on the account of his personal issues, the Indian Sales Team called your husband immediately (as the delivery address was his office premises). The complete information along with the tracking details was provided to him at the earliest. Currently as per tracking details information your Order has already been delivered on 11 Apr 2019. A person named "Purun" has received the Order.

We humbly request you to write your review befitting our services. It will assist other customers in understanding the true nature of our services. In case of any further queries, please feel free to contact us via Live Chat (24/7) by visiting our website "www.worldsim.com".

Regards,
WorldSIM Support

If you are a UK traveller looking for a SIM suitable for international travel, I strongly advise that you avoid WorldSIM at all costs.
Firstly, the 'free UK mobile number' that they advertise, is not. The number allocated is actually an Isle of Man, Manx Telecom number. IoM is not part of the UK, and therefore any calls to this number are not included in any inclusive minutes. Depending on operator, calls to the IoM number are charged at 50p/min on average.
So in the first instance you have false advertising...
Furthermore, this SIM cannot receive calls from another (UK) mobile number, only landline. The company claim that as it is an international SIM, it needs credit to call it, but that doesn't make much sense. So, secondly, what use is a phone number if noone can call it from another mobile?
In seeking assistance, customer service is poor. Little to no understanding of the product, and particularly the difference between IoM and UK assigned numbers. Written enquiries are seldom answered. Enquiries raised by phone have something like over a 10 working day response time.
In finally being promised a refund on returning the unworkable SIM, this has not been honoured. Companies like this thrive on customers getting fed up trying to claim rather than doing the right thing, and providing the service their glossy websites imply.

UPDATE: Proof of my order, SIM details, proof of agreed refund, proof of return etc have all been sent to WorldSIM several times. Again no response, and then a withdrawal of the refund offer, having received the returned item. Very underhand behaviour. Initial review and rating still stand - avoid.

I got wrongly charged for data usage, as data usage was off on my phone, hence an obvious billing flaw on Worldcom's side. After a month of emailing up and down Worldcom finally recognized my complaint and promised a refund on the 31st of March (CAS-*******-M8S3S7).

We are now in July and they still haven't refunded me, hence I decided to file a complaint under the applicable ADR scheme, as any telco in the UK needs to be registered under an ADR scheme according regulator Ofcom (https://www.ofcom.org.uk/complaints/complain-about-phones-or-internet-services/billing-and-charges).

Worldsim doesn't seem to be registered under any ADR scheme and when I asked support agent Nancy to tell me under which ADR scheme they are registered, she refused to answer me, but only repeatedly told me to sent yet another an email. I had already contacted Worldsim about this several days earlier and they never even answered, neither did they give me the deadlock letter I asked for.

Considering their poor customer support and reluctance to answer any questions related to regulation and dispute resolution, I wouldn't even be surprised if Worldsim deliberately tries to avoid regulatory compliance.

Therefore I highly recommend to avoid this company, even if they wouldn't deliberately try to avoid regulatory compliance, these clowns are highly unreliable and treating their clients with an utter derision.

Tip for consumers:
Don't use this company.
