## Verified Traveler Reviews (4.8/5 ★)

- **Lifesaver for navigating Sydney & Melbourne** (5/5 ★ by Nathan Foster, 2026-10-26 - *3 GB · 30 Days*): "Got the 5 GB · 30 Days plan before flying out so I didnt have to mess with tiny sim cards. Connected automatically to Optus at SYD before we even reached passport control. if youre flying into SYD just get this before you go, total lifesaver"
- **Molto comoda all'arrivo a SYD, ottimo prezzo** (4/5 ★ by Giulia R., 2026-10-26 - *5 GB · 30 Days*): "Abbiamo preso il pacchetto dati prima di partire per SYD. Appena toccato terra a SYD si è collegato a Optus in 5G e abbiamo usato maps a Sydney. Qualche tratto in 4G LTE nelle zone rurali oltre Melbourne, per il resto ottima."
- **Strong 5G in Sydney and kept my whatsapp number** (5/5 ★ by Daniel Hayes, 2026-10-26 - *10 GB · 30 Days*): "Way faster in Sydney than the pocket wifi we rented last year. so much better than paying $12/day for my home carrier roaming!"
- **Świetny zasięg i hotspot w Sydney oraz Melbourne** (5/5 ★ by Natalia N., 2026-10-26 - *20 GB · 30 Days*): "Bardzo dobra prędkość na sieci Optus zarówno w centrum Sydney, jak i w okolicach Brisbane. Zero problemów przez cały tydzień, na pewno skorzystam ponownie."
