@ 13:31 One crucial point: You don't tell us if we need to go online in China to pay with bundled foreign credit cards (AliPay or WeChat bundled no problem). My logic is: no data, no internet, no connection unless those apps get us thru automatically. I know eSIM can go outside China (social media as well) but not 100% sure about banking & how fast the data is chewed up (it's on roaming). Anybody? Otherwise, I might just buy a local physical SIM at the China airport SIM counter, get them to install then go online to pay for the SIM right there. If OK then all good. Remember no money no go. But opt for money or social media? Your call. (local SIM might need a VPN to go outside China for social media). Hello from Australia.

When I'm in China, I use a Chinese SIM. I also use a VPN, but I keep it off most of the time and turn it on when using RUclips, Insta, etc.

Hi Tait, Another question : I like the podcast in Wechat and would like to send gifts in form of Webeans. However, when I tried to top up Webeans, message was "Webeans top up not available in my Region". Can you tell me how I can top up my Webeans ? Thank you.

[@frankie0076]

In a group? Use @ to choose group members.

[@injunboy89]

My Q is why does it require a card to sign up yet refund?

[@SherryXShi]

I am in US. How come I can not have a WeChat channel?
