Sick of expensive roaming fees while traveling internationally? So was 28-year-old Adam Bacsalmasi, the founder of Similicious, a pre-paid mobile service designed for travelers visiting Canada.
Adam is keeping travelers inexpensively connected with pre-paid SIM cards and an extensive selection of low-cost mobile plans that serve customers up to 75 percent on charges incurred from data roaming. He built an e-commerce site with the goal of making keeping in touch affordable for travelers visiting Canada after traveling abroad himself and getting frustrated with difficult connection abilities.
The Similicious service delivers prepaid mobile SIM cards to anywhere in the world, even your hotel before you arrive. Its coast-to-coast footprint covers 94 percent of the Canadian popular, ensuring users will have excellent coverage capabilities. Additionally, its blazing-fast 3G speeds provide a super high-speed mobile experience.
Plans start as low as $20. Popular programs include the province plan, offering one GB of data and province-wide calling for $40; the Canada plan, providing one GB of data and Canada-wide calling; and an additional Canada plan, offering two GBs of data and Canada-wide calling.
To use the service, you must have a cellular-equipped tablet or an unlocked phone that will work with the Chatr Mobile network.
