Hi


I am off to South Africa in a months time and wanted to know if a third party esim was a good idea
Dont really want to pay £6 per day and I can get a 2GB esim for about £15
Not really sure how they work and do I end with a new number or can I still use my number for calls and text and the third party esim just works for data


Thanks

@JonWilford 

You can choose which sim you want to use for calls, texts or data and the esim will come with a new number from the SA provider.

NB. You can receive calls and texts on your UK number but making calls or sending texts will invoke the daily charge.
