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).

MegaEsim: 100% money-back guarantee: ask within 6 months of purchase for any reason (installed, partly used or not) and get a full refund within 3-5 business days. Only exception: plans with a phone number are non-refundable. EU/EEA/UK buyers also keep the 14-day withdrawal right unless waived.

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.

MegaEsim: Validity starts on first network connection at the destination, not at purchase or installation — installing the eSIM before a trip doesn't start the clock.

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.

MegaEsim: Daily-cap "Unlimited" plans run at full speed up to their stated daily allowance, then throttle (per-plan capacityInfo, typically to 1 Mbps) until the next 24h reset.

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.

MegaEsim: Top up anytime from your MegaEsim account or app (My eSIMs → Top Up); extra data is added to the same eSIM with nothing to reinstall. A few plans, such as some daily unlimited plans, can't be topped up.

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.

MegaEsim: Each QR code can normally only be installed once; if deleted, contact support and they re-issue a fresh QR code at no extra charge.

Billing currency

BNESIM: Not confirmed yet

MegaEsim: Prices are shown and charged in USD (confirmed via the site's own product schema); your card issuer may apply its own FX/foreign-transaction fee.
