Will be visiting for a couple of weeks in the new year and, based on experience in Phuket last year; would like to have a local SIM (For booking taxi's and a like) as my phone is not compatible with e-sim (Samsung FE20)

Therefore looking for recommendations from the knowledgable collective
- given a choice i'd not prefer to sort at KUL on arrival, but can do (as arrive circa 6pm)
- would be happy to visit a store in KUL the day after

Thank you in advance for your suggestions
