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!!

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.

  • Most travel eSIM plans provide data only. Your existing phone number stays active for calls and texts on your primary SIM.

  • Coverage quality varies by location within Singapore. Urban areas typically have strong 4G/5G coverage, while rural or remote areas may have limited connectivity.

  • Install your eSIM before departure. Activation requires an internet connection, which may not be available at your destination airport.

Public Network Name (PNN)
The PNN is the network-name field in the eSIM profile, defined in 3GPP TS 31.102 (EF_PNN). Your phone can read it to show the name of the network you are using.

HelloRoam eSIMs auto-configure their Access Point Name during installation. Your device connects to the strongest local network infrastructure without manual settings.
