OneSimCard VoIP requires you to order a compatible Personal Extra Number (PEN). Most of the PENs we offer are OneSim VoIP enabled. You also need to have an Android phone with software version 8 or higher, or Apple device (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch) with iOS 6.1 or higher.

Once you have an active OneSim VoIP enabled PEN, you will be able to see the option to create a OneSim VoIP account in the My SIM Cards menu of your online account.

The SIM card does not offer SMS service to short code numbers

Yes. If you are not available to answer the OneSim VoIP call or if the OneSim VoIP app is turned off, the call will be routed through our standard roaming network. If the call is not answered it will be sent to your OneSimCard voicemail box. 

NOTE: Voicemail is not available for DataMax or DataMax eSIM cards with OneSim VoIP.

We do not give refunds for airtime.

You may return an unused phone or OneSimCard SIM card within 30 days after our shipment of the item to you, provided you never placed a call to or from the mobile phone issued, all airtime is intact and the phone or OneSimCard SIM card is in new condition, in the original factory carton, including all packaging materials, inserts and manuals, warranty cards (not filled-out) and all related accessories.

We will not refund minutes used for calls to Customer Service. A call made to Customer Service will be billed at the same rate as a regular call made from the country in which you are located.

There will be no refunds for expired SIM Cards, even if, at the time of expiration, your SIM Card Account had a positive balance.

There will be no refunds for expired SIM Card Account balances should you fail to recharge your account with at least a $25 payment within ten (10) months of your preceding $25 recharge.

There are no monthly fees or connection charges for using OneSimCard international cell phone service.

If you order an optional Personal Extra Number (PEN), there is a small periodic fee to keep the PEN active based on how you choose to be billed (from $1.67 per month). There is also an additional charge to receive a call through any Extra Number. View our Rates & Coverage page and click on any country to view our available Extra Numbers and associated costs.

Some phone models do not allow direct dialing with older OneSimCard SIMs sold before January 1, 2017.

To get around this problem, you should try either of these methods:

• Locate the OneSimCard menu on your phone. (Some phones have it in Applications.)
  Make a call using menu 'Call'.
• You can also make a call by dialing directly *146*00 Country Code Number#
  For example, to make a call to the USA, you would dial *146*0018574440686# (do not forget to hit pound at the end of the number)

* is a star character located on the keypad

Other examples of how to use the *146* dialing prefix if necessary:

• To check your balance dial  *146*099# and press the TALK (or SEND) button
• To add funds dial *146*098XXXX*ZZ# and press the TALK (or SEND) button,
  where XXXX - 4 last digit of your credit card on file, ZZ - Recharge amount
• You need to press * on your phone in the above dialing sequences (it is a star character located on the keypad)
• Activation of voice mail *146*091# and press the TALK (or SEND) button
• Deactivation of voice mail *146*090# and press the TALK (or SEND) button
• Check number of messages in Voice Mail *146*094# and press the TALK (or SEND) button
• To listen to voice mail *146*095# and press the TALK (or SEND) button

The prefix *146* and # at the end can be used from any phone. However, newer OneSimCard SIM do not require it and you should be able to dial codes directly, 091, 094, 095, 099 or 098XXXX*XX Talk.

If you have an older SIM and the dialing does not work without entering *146*, please follow these simple instructions to remove the need to dial *146*:

How to activate compatibility mode:

 

 1. Locate OneSimCard Menu.

 On iPhones it is called SIM Applications menu and is located under Settings- Phone menu

         On Androids it is called SIM Toolkit app and it looks like one of the apps

1. Open "OneSimCard" menu ( SIM Applications, SIM Toolkit, STK)
2. Select "Settings

Newer SIM Cards: Select Compatibility option and make sure "On" is selected

Older SIM Cards: After selecting Settings:

1. Agree with message by pressing "Yes"
2. Dial digits "1101" and select "OK" (Screen will show "CC OptionX: ON" message)

Bear in mind that if you have powered your telephone down, and have removed and reinstalled the battery, you will need to follow the programming steps outlined above, again.

When dialed directly, some Nokia and other phones can display message: "Call is not allowed" or "Call is barred". Just ignore this message and wait for the ring-back for 10 seconds or so.
