Refund policy

4S: Refund eligibility is reviewed case-by-case based on order/eSIM status and reason — no fixed window stated; contact support to request review.

TropiTrade: If the eSIM doesn't work for a technical reason, they first repair or replace it, otherwise give a full refund (report within 30 days of purchase); installed/activated eSIMs count as used, and used data or data left after validity isn't refunded.

Validity starts

4S: Most plans start counting on first use, when the eSIM connects and begins using data (checked on your 4S service page).

TropiTrade: Validity starts on the first connection to a supporting network in the destination country, not at installation; an unactivated eSIM can be activated for up to 1 year after purchase.

Fair-use limit

4S: Unlimited plans include a high-speed data quota for the full validity period; after it is used, speed drops to up to 1 Mbps until the plan expires.

TropiTrade: Unlimited plans give 1GB at full speed every 24 hours, then 1.25 Mbps until the next day (the Curaçao local-number day pass allows 20GB a day); fixed-GB plans have no daily cap.

Top-ups & rollover

4S: Self-serve top-up (same destination/region only) adds high-speed data to the current plan and extends its validity by the top-up package's own validity period.
