Order process straight forward. Sim delivered on time. Sim is working well, Cannot say much until about post service until any issue arise during the term of contract. Hope this helps.

Automatic signal switch does not work

I bought the 500Gb 3 SIM taking note of the banner stating that this SIM will automatically switch between 3 and Vodafone. This does not happen as apparently my post code is not one that receives this service. 3 is really poor where I live, rarely giving more than 5 Mbps download speed in comparison with 15 Mbps or more on Vodafone. I asked Clifton at Scancom for information but he could not help. Overall a disappointing experience but maybe the 3/Vodafone merger will result in improvements over time. At least the SIM arrived quickly and works in a fashion. I doubt it will let me use more than 5GB in a month, so 495GB will be left over.

IFailure to cancel & provide refund

I emailed scancom with all necessary information to cancel a 30 day rolling programme SIM. The SIM was not cancelled. I sent a total of 6 emails over following days, repeating my request to cancel the SIM contract. Each time I provided all the information to cancel the SIM. A week later I was charged another £25 for renewal of the SIM contract. Scancom had still failed t cancel the SIM. It was a further 4 days before the eventually emailed me to confirm the SIM had been cancelled. The contract stated that on receipt of an email, containing the SIM number and a reference, which I provided each time, the SIM would be immediately cancelled and the service would immediately cease. Following the eventual cancellation I emailed Scancom to ask for a refund of the £25 they eroniously took from my account. They ha ve not provided any refund and have failed to respond to my emails. They do not appear to have any complaints procedure. I continue to repeat my request to Scancom support.

Hi there,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience — we’re really sorry to hear about the frustration this has caused.

This isn’t the level of service we aim to provide, especially when you made multiple clear requests to cancel and supplied all the required information. We completely understand how disappointing it must have been to see the SIM remain active and then be charged again despite your efforts.

Delays in processing cancellations and a lack of follow-up communication are not acceptable, and we’re very sorry that this happened in your case. We’d like to look into this urgently to understand what went wrong, ensure the cancellation has been fully completed, and review the £25 charge so we can resolve this properly for you.

Please email us at support@scancom.co.uk
so we can prioritise your case and make this right as quickly as possible.

Kind regards,
Scancom Support Team

Scamcom.

Bought a 36 mnth Vodafone unlimited data sim cardwhich stopped working after 8mnths. No explanation, no apology, just a snooty response from some customer service person who was clearly miffed that I got a refund.Loads of complaints on Amazon,who refunded me £649 without me even asking because they had so many complaints about this mob. I must have been mad buying from them. Never again. Avoid like the plague. Scancom.? More like Scamcom. Terrible, unreliable company and product. No interest emailing customer service as requested in reply. Got full refund from Amazon, not them. Cowboys, DO NOT TOUCH!!

Hi there,

Thank you for your feedback. We’re really sorry to hear about your experience — particularly that the SIM stopped working and that you felt unsupported when you reached out. That’s certainly not the level of service we aim to provide.

We understand how frustrating it must have been to have the service fail unexpectedly, and we’re equally concerned to hear your comments about the way this was handled by our customer support team. That’s not the impression we want to leave with any customer.

We would genuinely appreciate the opportunity to look into this further, understand what happened with the SIM, and review the communication you received so we can address this properly.

Please email us at support@scancom.co.uk

Not Scancom's fault, but next day delivery turned out to be 6 days later. Royal Mail once again getting their customers down.

Thank you for your feedback and for clarifying that point — we really appreciate it.

We’re glad to hear it’s not an issue with your order from our side, but we’re sorry that the delivery took 6 days rather than the next-day service you were expecting. We understand how frustrating that can be, especially when expectations aren’t met.

We’ll continue working closely with our delivery partners to help minimise delays like this where possible. If there’s anything else we can help with, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.Thank you for your feedback and for clarifying that point — we really appreciate it.

Bargain prices on their 3 data sims but…

Bargain prices on their 3 data sims but there’s a catch….. your speeds are extremely slow in parts of London due to congestion. I’m talking as low as 3Mbs/s!

Also, if you’ve chosen the eSIM and need to transfer to another device. You may need to order a new eSIM to do this - costs £18 pounds each time you wish to do this!

Thank you for your feedback — we really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.
We’re sorry to hear you’ve experienced slow speeds in parts of London. Network performance can vary depending on local congestion and coverage, and we understand how frustrating lower speeds can be when you’re expecting a consistent connection.
We’re also sorry for any confusion or inconvenience around eSIM transfers. In some cases, a replacement eSIM may be required when moving to a new device due to security and network provisioning processes, but we understand that this isn’t ideal and appreciate your comments.
We’d like the opportunity to look into both your speed experience and the eSIM situation in more detail to see how we can help.
Please email us at support@scancom.co.uk and we’ll be happy to assist further.

No Support Emails Answered

Ive used scancom EE sims for a few years, decent value , but the support from Scancom is lacking, no phone support, and emails arent answered.

All i want to know is when is the 1000GB EE £15 a month sim reset, the old sims used to be on the 23rd of every month, but on these you cant text 150 to find out.

Hi there,

Thank you for your review — we really appreciate your long-term custom and your honest feedback.

We’re sorry to hear that you’ve found our support channels limited and that you haven’t been able to get a clear answer on your 1000GB EE SIM reset date. We understand how frustrating it is when you’re trying to manage your usage but don’t have easy access to the information you need.

For these EE 30-day rolling SIMs, the data allowance typically resets on the same date each month based on the original activation/start date of your plan, rather than a fixed universal date like the 23rd for all customers.

We’d be happy to check your specific SIM and confirm your exact reset date for you, as well as help clarify anything else you need about your plan.

Please email us at support@scancom.co.uk
and we’ll make sure this is looked into for you.
