Coverage
Our World phones and SIMs has perhaps the best coverage of any
international phone service.
Not only in the number of countries it works in, but also the number
of carriers it connects to in each country - in fact, you'll get better coverage than many of the
locals get, as they will be stuck using just one carrier.
I have traveled extensively throughout the world for over 25 years and have
flown over 3 million air miles.
I must say that the purchase of your Mobal International Cell Phone has been the biggest improvement
in my travels, ever.
Also, Mobal is one of the few companies that I call where a live person answers the call and answers
my questions every time! I have told all of my traveling friends about it.

My Mobal World Phone was a great peace of mind for our trip to Italy.
I was able to call my parents on their 60th anniversary as well as my father on Father's Day.
Additionally we were traveling with four other couples and the phones made it very easy for us to
reconnect while in larger cities.
Thank you for your assistance.

I got my Mobal International Cell Phone for a business trip to Australia.
It's easy to use as there is no frustration as with trying to use a calling card from a hotel room,
so the connection to "home" is always available. The peace of mind it provides is priceless.
Thank you for a great product

Profits Go To Charity
It all started with one man's desire to make calls while traveling...
Mobal was the brainchild of Chairman Tony Smith. As a lifelong international traveler, he was constantly
frustrated when trying to keep in touch with family, friends & business contacts on his many trips
overseas.
On the back of the success of the international cell phone service he has established a number of
charities with a desire to change the world.
In February 2016, Tony set up Seibo, a registered Japanese non-profit organisation with a simple aim:
to feed every hungry child in the world a hot meal in school!. School feeding carries many
benefits - education, nutrition and health, gender equality, food security, poverty alleviation - in one
single meal. The world would be changed if every hungry child in it were to receive a meal at school.
Mobal guarantees that the majority of profits go to its charities, so with your Mobal SIM, you don't
just travel the world, you make it a better place!

I just want to say that I purchased my Mobal World Phone in the beginning of
December and used it for the first time on a trip to Grenoble, France the week of December 11th.
It worked flawlessly and I was very pleased.
It certainly saved a lot of time searching out pay phones and having to pay for phone cards.

FAQs
Who Is Mobal?
If you've never heard of Mobal before, here are some of the facts about us:
a) Mobal is one of the world's longest running cell phone providers and was founded in
1989 (consider that AT&T was only founded in 2001, Verizon in 2000 and T-Mobile in 1995
and that puts our long history into perspective!)
b) You're in good company — the Mobal World SIM is the best selling international sim card in America today
As you can see, we're a well-established company with a proven reputation.
What phone number comes with my service?
Your Mobal World SIM comes with a UK number. Your phone number works in over 190 countries* around the world so your friends, family, and colleagues always dial the same number to reach you. UK numbers are relatively cheap to call compared with many other international numbers, so it means your contacts can call you without it costing them too much.
*To use our service in the US you would need a 4G or 5G enabled handset.
Can I test my SIM Card before I leave?
If you wish to use your Mobal World SIM at home in the USA, your phone needs to work on 4G or 5G frequencies. Alternatively, you can purchase the Mobal Deluxe World Phone (please note that the Basic and Classic World Phones do not work in the USA).
Which size SIM do I need?
Our SIMs are all multi-size (Standard, Micro and Nano size) to fit any device. When you
