data point

got the toggle sim last year for a trip from amsterdam to budapest and it worked fine. I had to put the apn a few times as the phone kept forgetting it despite saving it. I kept it alive with a text message every couple of months. then i got a local france number in late august for a two week trip all over France. I got the 1 gb data package and was using a global moto g. And it worked great. It does take some time to register on the network, but i got decent speed even in the rural midi Pyrenees (2G) in places like Saint Cirq Lapopie. I got up to 7 mbs down with a ping of 60 in Cahors, and similar speeds in Bordeaux and Paris. I made some calls with it and got some calls with it and the spend on that was trivial. It seems to me it got better technically in the past year, and i never had to call customer service, thankfully, because it worked as it was supposed to do. However, now back in the US the data is painfully slow.
