Terrible network
Terrible network, no customer service to deal with issues, mostly a poor signal and they try taking extra money out of your account it’s called ‘doubling up’ apparently.

The ability to flex up and down on different months is really useful for my SIM as I'll only be using when I'm travelling. Great value for money.

Great value, easy to port over
Easy transfer from my previous network of 21 years. Knew the network would be good as those years were with Three 🤗
Great value for money and so flexible.

Switched from 3 after 20+ years
Switching was easy after over 20 yrs with 3 mobile.
The app is so straight forward and easy to manage and understand.
Went from physical sim to esim so wasnt sure how that would work. Once had confirmation of the transfer pulled out the physical sim and made the esim primary one. Then restarted my phone making and everything just worked perfectly
Signal wise same as when was with 3, as read somewhere Smarty is part of 3 and uses their masts and Vodafone ones now. So signal great and zero issues

Good for UK/EU but useless for non-EU roaming
Whilst it offers a very competitive rate for UK users in addition to free usage in the EU, unfortunately it's not compatible with other eSIMs when travelling outside the EU and they force you to buy their own add on data. When I was with EE, using other eSIMS in non-EU countries was working absolutely fine.

Hi Norman Price,
Thank you for the review, and I’m sorry your experience outside the EU wasn’t as straightforward as you expected. I do appreciate you calling it out.
SMARTY works brilliantly for UK use and free EU roaming, but outside the EU our network setup doesn’t allow other travel eSIMs to take over data. Some providers use different roaming systems, which is why your EE setup behaved differently. It’s not something we block, just a technical limitation of how our roaming partners authenticate connections abroad.
Because of that, SMARTY offers its own roaming add‑ons for non‑EU travel so you can stay connected when you need to.
Your feedback is genuinely helpful.

I have changed my plan yet you are still charging me monthlyfor the old plan and the new one. Complete joke phoned 3 times and no one can find the old plan to stop the payment

Hi Mark Elford,
Thank you for your review. We apologise for the continued charges related to a SIM card you are not using.
Managing your own account is the customer's responsibility. As you have used a different email address to set up the new SIM, the other account must be registered under a different email address.
To stop further payments, you will need to disable the auto-renewal feature. We recommend logging in using your other email address. If you are unable to recall that email address, please contact us again so we can assist in locating the account.

I like that smarty has been nothing but consistent with my payment plans and always restarting my plan at midnight each month. But i don't like how the mobile data connection keeps dipping every few seconds. The data is really bad on this provider. And it will not let me connect to 5g automatically, even though there is a 5g tower right next to my house. The mobile data is the worst thing about smarty. And maybe you could reward the customers with freebies such as Bluetooth headphones, speakers, and maybe even free phone upgrades after a full year of being a pay as you go member, just to draw in more loyal customers!. The key solutions would be fix your inconsistent mobile data spikes. Give us access to free tech that can be used with our phones. And maybe even offer free phone upgrades for members that have paid for a year!.

Hi Jaxon Johnson,
Thank you for your feedback, we really do appreciate you taking the time to share both the positives and the frustrations.
We are glad to hear your plan renewals have been consistent, but I’m sorry that your mobile data connection hasn’t been performing the way it should.
Dips in signal and difficulty connecting to 5G can happen for a few reasons, including local mast performance, temporary maintenance, or how your device connects to nearby towers. Even with a mast close by, your phone may still connect to a different one depending on load, signal strength, or network conditions at that moment.
Just like any other network, SMARTY cannot guarantee 100% coverage or a completely flawless service.
We’re always working to improve network stability, and your comments about inconsistent data spikes are really helpful for highlighting where things don’t feel right from a customer point of view.
Regarding rewards and freebies, SMARTY is a SIM only provider. We keep costs low by focusing on simple, contract‑free plans rather than handset deals or promotional gifts. This is how we’re able to offer competitive pricing without long‑term commitments.

Awful customer service from Smarty
After Smarty informed me they were going to almost double the price of my sim only plan I tried to cancel since there are much better offers elsewhere. They asked me to get in touch to look at better offers but (after a long wait on a slow and painful chat) they just offered a plan with a lot more data (that I don’t use or want) at an even higher price! I respect their right to increase prices but wasting my time by getting me to contact them on the pretence of improving the deal only to offer an even more expensive deal is just insulting and poor customer service!
