Pros

  • A full 1 GB, which is the largest dated free trial we track.
  • No payment card needed to claim it.
  • Three days is long enough to cover an arrival and a first full day.
  • No automatic charge when the allowance runs out.

Cons

  • New accounts only, so it is a one time offer.
  • The trial is granted in the app, and not through the website.
  • 48 destinations is a shorter list than the paid plans cover.

Our verdict

The cleanest free trial in the category. A full gigabyte, no card on file, and three days to use it, which is enough to prove the network works before you buy a longer plan. If you are only going to test one provider, test this one.

The catch: You have to claim it in the app. The website does not offer it.
