UsMobile was fine for me uses T-Mobile didn't want dodgy routing and a real us number
They do have a ref erree program so check online for codes
Get a Felix sim from https://felixmobile.com.au
Sign up for their $25 per month plan, then suspend. Add a 12 month international roaming pack for $20. 4Gb data, 100 mins calls, 100 sms.
$20 a pop to add to those totals.Use the referral system here for a $35 sign up credit.
You'll pay $25 upfront (for a month of Australian service that you probably can't use) get a 35 credit, which you'll use $20 for the international roaming pack.
Over 40 countries covered, including United states

other trials compare
https://comparewirelesscarriers.com/guide/free-esim-trial-pl…Verizon trial doesn't work unless you have a Verizon handset and getting on their whitelist is apparently near impossible
i doubt you need a Verizon handset if this is the eligibility criteria.
To be eligible for Free Trial:
Your smartphone must have an eSIM slot available (i.e., the eSIM you want to use for Free Trial isn't active with another carrier).
You can't currently be a Verizon, Visible or TracFone customer.
You must be in the US.
Your smartphone can't be locked with another carrier. If locked, contact your carrier to unlock.
You can't have enrolled in Verizon Free Trial in the last 12 monthsTrust me i tried. Constantly said "not compatible" Galaxy Z Fold 4 and iPhone SE 2020
I tried their CS team who also said no as its an "international model"
can you sign up even if you are in NZ? Need to put an aus address
