I totally did not understand the description. The SIM card arrived in no time. Follow the instructions to activate the card. The seller did notify me that I purchased just an empty SIM card and I needed to purchase data. Oh, that was very kind of them. So I followed the instructions and purchased the data for the SIM card. The phone works with the SIM card. I can receive calls and it came in so handy as I drove across Jalisco area of Mexico. No issues at all but only one spot in Guadalajara. But all over Jalisco state I went from 3G to 4G depending on where I was. If you are going to Mexico for peace of mind, get the SIM card and not bother with finding a local Telcel place. ### ⭐ garbage, "SIM Not Supported" even when my phone is unlocked. *by on Reviewed in the United States August 26, 2021* Added the SIM card to my iphone AT&T where I already have a tracfone SIM working just fine, and my Phone says "SIM not supported" So much for "Universal"I got a different card, the one I got is Yellow and Says Amigo Express Chip 6.4 4G... NO LTE anywhere. So much for LTESo I would say, if this is not a SCAM is at least a bad product description. My phone is unlocked already working with a non AT&T SIM card... and this piece of garbage is NOT UNIVERSAL. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Completely Worth the Money *by on Reviewed in the United States August 13, 2014* I ordered this SIM card so that I could use my unlocked iPhone on my upcoming trip to Mexico without having to buy a SIM card in Mexico ( to do so I would have to go into one of the cities, find a Telcel store, waiting in line, and fumbling my way through my awful (almost non-existent) Spanish).The SIM card comes with some simple instructions (in English) on how to activate it and activation takes less than 5 minutes. I had some additional questions so I contacted the seller directly and had a response and answer within 15 minutes.I'll update this review after I return from trip but so far so good.UPDATE (9/2/2014):Well I'm back from Mexico and throughout my entire week trip the ONLY purchase that I felt was truly worth the money was this SIM card and Data plan I added to it. Adding the data plan was very fast and easy, I simply went to sellers website, put in my number, and I was good to go. I also had the option to purchase data directly from Telcel but after doing the math I decided that going through the seller was the better option for me as I don't speak Spanish and the markup was actually very low.When I landed in Mexico I swapped the SIM card in my iPhone and I was all set. I had voice and data right away. I had cellular coverage everywhere I went in Mexico (Cancun to Riviera Maya), mostly 3G but I did get 4G LTE in and around Cancun.After being in Mexico I realize it would have actually been more expensive for me to buy a SIM card in Mexico (even if I did speak Spanish). I would have had to pay for a shuttle/cab to/from the Airport/Resort/Hotel to a town with a Telcel or Movistar store (there don't seem to be many of them). At least for where I was, I would have paid more than double for the transportation than I did for the SIM Card. If you'll be going into a town with a store anyway (and you speak Spanish) then it's likely more economical for you to just buy a card there but from the stories I've heard be prepared to spend 30 to 60 minutes in line at the store. For me, this was by far the best option.The only thing I didn't like was that the seller doesn't offer all the data packages that Telcel does (at least at the time, they were updating their site as I went on vacation so that may have changed). This though isn't enough for me to deduct a star, I am still very happy with my purchase. ## Frequently Bought Together - Telcel Mexico Prepaid Basic SIM Card Universal SIM - Alcatel 1 (16GB) 5.0" Full View Display, Removable Battery, FM Radio, Dual SIM GSM Unlocked US & Global 4G LTE International Version 5033E (Bluish Black) - Telcel Mexico Prepaid SIM Card with 2GB Data and Unlimited Calls and SMS --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/20428021-mexico-prepaid-basic-sim-card-universal-sim](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/20428021-mexico-prepaid-basic-sim-card-universal-sim) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-11-01*
