Refund policy

BNESIM: Refund requests must be made within 14 days of purchase and are denied once over 10% of the plan's data has been used; approved refunds go to BNE Wallet credit (24h) or the original payment method (up to 3 business days).

esim0: Refund within 7 days of purchase if the eSIM cannot activate due to a fault on their side, advertised coverage is unavailable, the same plan was bought twice, or the QR code was not delivered within 24 hours. No refund once the eSIM has been activated or used, or for device incompatibility or changed travel plans.

Validity starts

BNESIM: Data validity starts counting down as soon as a plan is purchased by default; BNESIM also lets you schedule activation for a specific future day instead. Once installed, the eSIM begins working within about a minute of connecting to a local network.

esim0: Validity starts at the first connection to the network (Terms §6); an unused eSIM stays installable for 180 days after purchase.

Fair-use limit

BNESIM: Unlimited-data plans may be suspended if daily usage reaches 5GB or monthly usage reaches 100GB; BNESIM reserves the right to limit speed for very high network use.

Top-ups & rollover

BNESIM: Top up via the BNESIM eSIM app: open My eSIMs, pick the eSIM to recharge, then choose a country and data plan; no reinstall needed.

esim0: Top-ups from the dashboard for eligible eSIMs only; a different destination or an expired plan needs a new eSIM.

Lost device / reinstalling

BNESIM: A BNESIM eSIM can be reinstalled on the same device as needed, but it can't be moved to a new device -- switching devices requires requesting a paid replacement (1 EUR) via BNESIM support.
