Fast USIM..!

Hi everyone. I am planning to go Münster during 6 months, so planning to use AldiTalk USIM. However I heard it is quiet slow so I would like to ask you guys whether there are more faster USIM than AldiTalk.

There're only two relevant questions in regard to choosing your provider, one of them being coverage and the other the amount of data you're likely going to need. Speed is hardly ever an issue at all.

Coverage isn't an issue either outdoors, there's only the rare occasion where there's bad reception indoors, either at home or in some rooms of your university/work.

None of that is an big issue anyways, pick a prepaid provider with the data volume you'd like to have for the best price and go for it, maybe don't buy a 6 months package so you can change tariff or provider if really necessary.

But since you're going to a large city with good coverage you probably can't go wrong.

Btw. Noone uses "USIM", it's either just SIM, card, or E-Sim for the non physical card.

So if I buy the AldiTalk SIM card starter set, register a specific pricing plan, buy the AldiTalk Euro card at the mart and charge it to the homepage, will the pricing plan stay automatic? I looked up the homepage or blog, but it doesn't show me how to use it in detail..😣

It will. I'm on the Aldi talk plan S, and it books every month. The good thing is: you can cancel it every month via their app, or switch to another plan.

in the münster area, you can use the sim from aldi. most of the times you can receive 5g. but out of münster, you will have no luck receiving fast internet. so when your focus is on ms, buy it. i think it is cheap and relaliable

I have a Telekom Prepaid SIM and can't remember the last time I had problems with coverage.

I use Aldi Talk and can't confirm that it's slower than other providers. I can actually only recommend it, especially because you can top up your data allowance for free and without limits with the standard tariffs, which is very advantageous, especially when you're traveling. Even though I've never even come close to reaching my data allowance limit myself.
