“If someone goes to India with only a local provider SIM Card it can connect only with that local provider in India. But with the Telecom26 Global SIM Card it can also connect to other Indian local providers. Telecom26 is reliable and efficient. It guarantees global coverage even in the most challenging regions and covers practically all regions with only one SIM Card.

The excellent customer support, flexibility to set-up packages to suit different needs and requests and the simplicity of the Telecom26 B2B management portal - all this was difficult to find in one single provider”.
