eSIM Travel Tips for Los Angeles
Sort your eSIM before you leave Dublin
Buy your HelloRoam eSIM for Los Angeles at home, scan the QR code over Wi-Fi, and switch on data when you land at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). You step off the plane already connected on local 4G LTE. No queuing at airport telecom shops.
Keep your Irish number live
On a dual-SIM phone, leave your Three Ireland, Vodafone Ireland, Eir, or GoMo SIM active for calls and texts. Use HelloRoam for data in Los Angeles. People back home can still ring your Irish number without international charges.
Download offline maps first
Save Google Maps or Maps.me for Los Angeles offline before you fly. Offline navigation uses no data and keeps working even where signal is patchy. It's a handy backup when you arrive and need directions quickly.
Watch your data usage
The HelloRoam app shows how much data you've used, though it can be up to 3 hours behind. On a fixed-data plan, HelloRoam also emails you when your data runs low, so there are no nasty surprises. Top up inside the app if you need more data in Los Angeles, no reinstall needed.
Save emergency numbers offline
Emergency numbers are not the same in every country, and many places have a separate number for the police, an ambulance and the fire brigade. In Los Angeles it is worth checking the local number too. Save these offline before you travel. Your phone can call an emergency number on any available mobile network, even with no data left on your plan. The HelloRoam eSIM itself is for data only.

Cat
On a trip to Europe, my hotel Wi-Fi was so slow and outside Wi-Fi was unreliable. I couldn’t take it anymore so I got helloroam for a few days. It was tricky to set up correctly because of the primary settings (with my original number). But I reached out to their customer service via WhatsApp. Super responsive and helpful, with specific and clear steps to troubleshoot. Appreciate having 4G roaming instead of being stuck with in and out Wi-Fi during my trip!!
Rated 5 out of 5 by this reviewer

Very good experience! The eSIM was easy to set up and worked great in London. It was much cheaper than it would have been to use my own operator there.
