Looking for the best data SIM card for my holiday!
Hello! I’m currently traveling in Australia and need a SIM card with plenty of data. I tried using an eSIM, but I’m having trouble getting it to work.
Which network offers the best coverage? I’ll be traveling from Sydney to Brisbane along the east coast, so good connectivity is a must.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Hi there! For a holiday in Australia, especially along the East Coast from Sydney to Brisbane, you’ll want a SIM card with good coverage and data options. Here are a few popular choices:
Telstra: They have the best overall coverage in rural and metropolitan areas, making them a top choice for traveling up the East Coast. Their prepaid SIM plans usually include unlimited data for social media, which can be handy.
Optus: Another solid option with extensive coverage and competitive pricing. Their prepaid plans offer significant data allowances and coverage in most urban and suburban areas.
Vodafone: While their coverage might not be as extensive in rural areas compared to Telstra and Optus, they do have good service in cities and major towns. Check for their plans as they often have attractive data options.
You can usually purchase these SIM cards at airports, convenience stores, or mobile provider stores. Just make sure your phone is unlocked, and you’ll be good to go! Enjoy your trip!
