I didn't put this on the forum before as I was waiting for my sim to arrive and make sure it worked properly - ordered 21/12/23 and got it yesterday although most people got theirs much sooner!

Can be used in UK and in roaming destinations (the usual ones) including all 5gb of data, there doesn't appear to be a need to use it a lot in the UK before you go away as they don't check until 4 months has passed where you're using it more (ie UK or abroad) and as the gift card should come through within 14 days of the 3rd payment most people will cancel it once they get that anyway so will be a moot point (you just remove your payment method and it will stop when the 4th payment is due), but of course you can keep using it if you want.

Use the link at the bottom to access the deal, just fill in the required details and wait for it to plop through your letter box. I'll post a bit more info later about how you activate and set-it up once you get it as although it's not obvious it's not difficult to do.

Make sure you keep a record of the email, username and password you use to get the deal as you'll need them later!

Okay, assuming you've got one of the sims here's how to set it up.

1: Activate sim
This will happen once you've put it in your phone (you have 30 days to do it), some phones will show it immediately, others need to be rebooted (I always do this anyway) - you'll know it's live as you'll get texts from Asda mobile.

2: APN
You'll need to manually create this on your phone (you only need to complete the below fields and ignore the rest), depending on phone type do as follows:

Android - on my Xiaomi Redmi it's found here & will be similar on yours I suspect:
Go to Settings > SIM cards & mobile networks > select ASDA sim > Access Point Names > New APN:​
Name: ASDA internet​
APN: MY.INTERNET​
Username: wap​
Password: wap​
Click More at bottom of screen and then Save

Apple - you need to set it up in TWO different areas (I haven't got an iPhone so can't say if this is all you need to do):
Go to Settings > Mobile Data > Mobile Data Network and use the following settings:

Internet/Mobile Data
APN: MY.INTERNET​
Username: wap​
Password: wap​

Personal Hotspot
APN: MY.INTERNET​
Username: wap​
Password: wap​

3: Download the app
You can get this from the usual places depending on your phone type

4: Payment card
Despite putting this in when purchasing the sim it isn't kept so you have to do input it, this is how to do it in the app:
Log into the app > click on Profile (bottom right cog) > Click on Registering payment cards and enter details there and save​

5: Activating your £7 bundle

Go onto Asda mobile's website mobile.asda.com (NOT the app as the T&Cs state it has to be done via the website):
Log in (with the info you used when purchasing the sim)​
Scroll down and click on Activate sim (or something like that - hubby did them and can't remember! :rolleyes:

You will then see a current balance of £0 but ignore it as it's always £0 unless you put £ credit on for other stuff/buy extras etc, your £7 bundle will be detailed underneath.

Hopefully you'll now be able to use it!!! :LOL:
