Dealing with this company is quick, simple and easy. No need to wait a long time for your call to be answered. Staff are very helpful, friendly and courteous. Emails with esims are also quick to generate. I'd recommend them any day.

During the process of bringing the code to E Tel, I filled in my information incorrectly. After writing an email to the customer service for feedback, I received good service and clear response and assistance. The service is great! Make yourself feel that you have chosen the right telecommunications company.
