Conclusion

Across the supplied reviews, common consumer concerns are recurring billing/auto‑renew problems, slow or ineffective customer support, and inconsistent device connectivity. A minority of reviewers report satisfactory performance and responsive service, especially for pay‑as‑you‑go use. If you consider Skyroam, check auto‑renew settings carefully, document orders and promotions, and test device connectivity before travel. For refund or billing disputes, keep chat transcripts and timestamps; several reviewers report difficulty resolving such issues.
