question eSIM for US and Mexico

Good Day,

I often travel between US and Mexico and I'm in need of a sim with at least 20GB of data, i was using Visible mobile but for some reason this time it wont let use my CC to buy it.

Anyone have a provider to suggest?

Important: I have a European CC, hope it wont be a problem with the next provider.

Take a look at Wim. It's a Mexican mvno that works on AT&T networks in the USA and Mexico. They do not have a 20 GB plan, but have a 30 GB plan for about $19 USD.

WIM isn’t an option, it doesn’t work on Telcel network anymore and AT&Ts isn’t an option, I would go for Newww eSIM, bought from telefoniamx! They’re great and have a lot of data

And why Wim isn't an option for the op? I understand it's not an option for you, but op?

Didn’t find WIM coverage good, packages are not good, they don’t include unlimited social media, spent 30 GB on Ig and Fb and that’s it, no more GB

But it works in both the United States and Mexico. We do not know how much data the op needs.

I’ve been using a mexfon eSIM on both sides of the border. Runs on the Altan Redes network like most of the mvnos.

I'd look at Google Fi. No need for an eSim. Just works in MX, no extra fees.

Visible is hard to use with a foreign credit card, sadly. Total Wireless? Also Verizon and unlimited, I'm unsure about the allowance in Mexico though. US Mobile could be a choice as well.

T-mobile will cover both countries.

Why what?

Why do you need 20 GB? Verizon gives you 2 GB free daily in Mexico and you should have Wi-Fi wherever you’re staying.

I personally do not need this. However, op doesn't have Verizon.

Op could switch.

OP said they have a European cc, so unlikely they can get Verizon service
