Top Pro

Covers almost all European countries

Top Con

Limited country coverage

Tep has a more limited country coverage than other competitors, like, for example, XCom Global. See More

GenerousZagreus's Experience

I thought thiswas a fantastic solution until I foind out that it is not unlimited. 4G is limited to 1GB per day. When this is used the connection speed goes down to 256BPM. IT resets the next day. When working online while travelling this is not brilliant. See More

Top Pro

Advertised speeds are accurate in real-life use

Tep claims to provide a download speed of around 7.2 Mbps while in 3G areas, with 5.8 Mbps of upload speed. During Engadget's review, the specification speeds where achieved in real world usage. That said, speeds are very dependent on the particular country and geographic area you're in. See More

Top Con

Some people have had customer support issues

A quick browse through international travel forums show that people have had occasional issues with customer support. This blog post covers one travelers particularly bad experience with the company earlier in 2013. It should be noted though that the majority of consumer reviews are positive. See More

Top Pro

One of the cheapest options in France

Top Con

Not reliable outside of Paris

Great service/reception in France (in Perigord region), but not reliable outside of that. See More

CompetentCoeus's Experience

After having great service/reception in France (in Perigord region) the 2 previous years, last summer I had little to no service, it was practically useless. I'm fairly certain that I was given an older device as well, but I don't want an unreliable service. Also 3 years in a row, we had delivery problems - it was being shipped to our niece's house just outside Paris, so shouldn't have been complicated. I'm now going to try another service. For 20+ days, I pay a lot, but would pay more to have reliable service. Our family's French cell phones and tablets access the internet just fine when we are there, so there is service in the area, it's a mifi issue. See More

Top Con

False advertising

Lots of important details can only be read in the fine print. It doesn't have unlimited internet, limiting you to only 5GB per day in 4G and the battery doesn't last 8 hours if the device is continuously on. See More

Alicia Panday's Experience

Hired MyWebSpot for 9 days whilst in France staying in Normandy. The device did not work, was unable to contact customer services via the phone. The phone message told me to send an email (which I could not do as no wifi). No refund, no contact with anyone. Almost wanted to keep the device to see if they would contact me! Will not be using again! See More

Top Pro

Great 4G coverage in Europe

Top Con

Not very reliable

The WI-FI can have some issues where it won't work despite being in a city, there are no reception issues, even within the first 5GB of use. Sometimes you can get it to work but only for a few minutes. Even after getting it to work after you've used your first 5GB the speed will drop down to 256kbps making it quite painful to browse internet, because many times webpages will time out while trying to load at that speed. See More

EnthusiasticSeker's Experience

False advertising (not easily-found information). Many countries don't allow more than 1gb per day ("unlimited" is useless, as you can barely read email on 512kbs). See More

Top Con

Can't be used in areas where 4G or 3G is not available

Top Con

The USB cord may be damaged

The USB cord that comes with the package may not work properly. It is used to charge this device and if you don't have any USB reserves when this happens you won't be able to connect to the internet. See More

FlexibleRheda's Experience

!! AWFUL EXPERIENCE AVOID THIS COMPANY !! ONCE YOU PAID... no more customer support. I leave reviews everywhere because it's just anormal that this sort of service exists. They sell you "unlimited data", but after 3hours browsing, it suddenly stops, and when I dig in their website.. surprise ! In little size ...the conditions : data usage : you have 500mb/day. I tried to complain but they said but no answers after 3 weeks of emails, I finally have their hotline support (who are from Bangladesh I guess with their accents) and theses poor guys have 0 power for decisions, they said they can not do anything for me. Scandalous. See More

Top Pro

Higher 4G daily data consumption than most competitors in Europe

Hit or miss whether it will work

Doesn't work at all in Italy, France, or Ireland. Works in England, Poland, and Germany off and on, it is really hit or miss.

I hired a Global 137 Countries pocket WiFi when I went to Europe and Egypt, and I had a great experience using it. The speed was fine and battery lasted 7-8 hours in general.

Connection speed was not what was advertised. I paid for unlimited wifi access for 14 days, up to 10 devices at one time apparently. We used four devices max at any one time and video wouldn’t stream above 175p on any of our devices. Emergency SIM also did not work. I spent about half a day in total back and forth with them over a week trying to fix it. Customer service good and tried to help but only resolved the issue on day 11 of a 14 day trip. Was offered 13 Euro refund which was insulting. Won’t be using again. Such a shame as great idea and all looked so promising… Agree that battery life was also about 2 hrs max and unit heated up until it was red hot. See More
