eSim completely failed from day one – refund refused

Invoice number MTLBPC0E-0001 subscription

I was in an area of the UK where I could not receive any mobile phone reception, so I looked for an alternative to my current provider and came across Honest Mobile. I signed up for an annual subscription because, on the face of it, it appeared to offer good value.

Unfortunately, the eSIM completely failed to connect to any network from day one, and as I was unable to rectify this I ultimately deleted the eSIM.

The service I had paid for was therefore never usable, and I subsequently requested a refund, only to be told:

“As you bought the SIM on the 22nd of August 2026 you’re outside of the 14 day cancellation window so we wouldn’t be able to offer a refund at this time, but we can still cancel the SIM if you’d like.”

I find this response extremely disappointing. My understanding is that the Consumer Rights Act 2015 provides protections where a service is not provided with reasonable care and skill or is not fit for the purpose for which it was purchased. In my circumstances, this is not simply a case of changing my mind within a 14-day cancellation period, the service failed completely from the outset and was never delivered in a usable form.

The fact that Honest Mobile considers cancellation of the eSIM, without refunding the annual subscription for a service that I never received because it didn't work, to be an appropriate resolution is unacceptable to me.

I chose Honest Mobile because I believed it would offer a reliable service and good value. Unfortunately, my experience has been the complete opposite.

I will not be recommending Honest Mobile based on this experience.

Fast personal response from Milo a human who totally understood my issues and dealt with my questions without making me feel like an idiot. Outstanding customer service and the patience of a saint. This person should have a medal for managing customers with such efficiency and good grace. Thank you Milo you have restored my faith in human nature. I hope your employers take time to recognise the value you bring to their company.

I had issues with my honest e-sim in arriving into the Seychelles.
The bot agent put me in touch with Helen on the support team when it couldn’t help me.
Helen quickly provided excellent support. And got me back up and running very quickly.
She also answered several questions regarding how best to set up my phone extremely promptly which was really helpful.
Thank you very much Helen!!🤩🤩

Absolutely outstanding service

Absolutely outstanding service. Extremely helpful and uniquely polite and caring. I would and will be recommending Honest Mobile to all my friends and family. I honestly thought we'd, in England anyhow, lost customer services as fantastic as what I have just received. Class outfit. The girl who helped me was named Leah

Honest Smart SIM Upgrade

I was having trouble upgrading my Honest eSIM to the new Smart Sim. After mailing the support website, Leah contacted me and with the help of several screenshots and emails resolved my issue and got me back on the straight and narrow. All sorted now. New Smart Sim is working a treat. I was already a fan of Honest’s product and it’s now even more reassuring to know that there’s excellent support from their Helpdesk. Thanks again for your help and patience Leah.

DIShonest mobile

I've never been charged more random fees nor had a mobile deal be less clear. I've never had a sim need such assistance in setting up, and after being a customer of pretty much every major brand (and smaller network - giffgaff etc.) this is by far the worst. Better off going to iD mobile and saving myself pretty much £20 a month (oh and setting up with them was the easiest thing ever)
