For a grand total of $80HKD, I was able to get fast, working data (up to 1.5 GB.) They worked quickly in putting the SIM card in for me and doing all the setup so I didn't have to.

Terrible experience for the second time when 1010 charged me for roaming. This time across 3…read moremonths they have charged over HKD2000 for roaming when, aside from my data roaming turned off, my phone never works unless connected to Wifi, as in i have to reconnect to a new wifi whenever I move around. Hence there is no way I will have used any data roaming. The issue is no-one wants to help, 1010 simply pass me around to difference departments/people and noone does anything. I have been a customer for over 30yrs would you believe, and this is how they are treating me! Would not recommend them and suggest extreme care when abroad, this is the second time I have had issues with this same issue. Jeanette

1010, a local mobile provider in HK provides phone support, mobile payment plans, and most…read moreimportantly, local SIMs. Unless you're a 1010 customer looking for support, this place is usually the place to go for tourists looking to utilize their unlocked phones in HK. Thanks to CSL and a collaboration with Discover Hong Kong, one can purchase a tourist SIM card for $88 for 5 days or $118 for 8 days. The local calls are unlimited, which is particularly handy with calling local friends, local services, and checking out local businesses (via the Yelp app, naturally). The real kicker is there is 4G data as well, up to 5GB of it. I've surfed extensively on it and even tethered with it, and it works extremely well. The local phone # assigned can last for up to 6 months and data coverage can be extended into Macau, Mainland China, and Taiwan for $40HKD a day with 40MB. It's not much, but it sure beats having to constantly swap out cards all the time. Since CSL is the other major provider in this card, one has access to a bunch of their hot spots located throughout the city. While the card is rechargable, it is only for voice calling to my understanding. Once the data is gone, the data is done. There is also an additional charge .45 HKD a minute for international calls, which is extremely reasonable compared to other local SIMs. If there is a line, wait for it. They have people in there who know how to install the SIM and activate the plan all without you saying a word or handling your phone. They're fast, efficient, and they accept credit cards. Anyone staying in HK for an extended period of time should definitely make this their first pit stop after arrival.

It was a simple matter of giving me a new nano SIM and a couple of minutes on the computer and he had transferred the number into my new SIM. Within 30 mins I was up and running on my new SIM.

My entire family has been using Telecom Digital as their mobile service provider for years now and…read morewe are very happy with the phone plans they provide. For just $72 a month, Telecom Digital provides unlimited (or a very large amount of... I'm not sure which, but I never run out) mobile data and phone calls. If I'm not wrong, this is the cheapest Internet plan in Hong Kong. Some of my friends complain to me about their phone bill being a couple hundred this month. I'm used to paying $72 a month, so just the idea of paying more than twice of that for what essentially is the same service is unthinkable to me! When I tell people that my phone internet bill is just $72 a month, their first reaction is usually something along the lines of 'so cheap?! It must be really slow!' But that's where they're wrong. I can use Safari and text on Whatsapp just fine, and I rarely have issues with my 3G randomly cutting off. However, watching videos is not ideal because it takes quite a while for them to buffer, and it's also really hard to download applications from the App Store. But for $72 a month, I'm really not complaining. I mean, how often would my life depend on whether or not I'm able to watch YouTube video or download an app while I'm outside? Phone bills are paid at the end of every month at any Telecom Digital shop. Since I live in Sha Tin, this is extremely convenient because there's one opposite the Tai Wai Station, one in Sha Tin Plaza and I'm sure there are a couple more too. I don't even have to go out of my way to pay my phone bills! Overall, I'm very satisfied with the service they provide and at such an affordable price too!

First of all he said there was no further discount. So we asked him to ask his manager to double check if there was really no discount. Then he said "I could ask my manager, but his response will be the same ." After he went to check with his manager, it turns out that they do have a good discount on M2 and that's why I purchased the MacBook here instead of its competitor next door. I would give this supervisor 3-star. The price was good. But the 512GB model runs out already. So I give this store 4-star. So average will be 4-star.

There were other substantially cheaper plans out there that would allow me to save on the card and roam throughout Asia at the same time. How did I know all of this? The fine folks at Phone People. Aside from helping me price out various options, they were able to give me an unbiased perspective on all the big mobile providers and help me maximize my value for what kind of plan I wanted. I learned the hard way there is no such thing as unlimited plans anymore, but they managed to help me find the next best thing (10GB) for a little more than the cost of my initial tourist SIM. They tinkered around with several SIMs, hoping to find one that would work. They were such pros that they also helped fix my faulty audio jack and clean my phone interior at no charge! How's that for service? English seems to be ok, which might be good for all the tourists nearby. They are extremely diligent and polite and I would recommend their services to anyone.
