Refund policy

Eskimo: ESKIMO GUARANTEE: if you cannot install the eSIM or connect to the network, contact 24/7 live chat for immediate verification and refund. Once connected, any remaining data balance is non-refundable if the account is later cancelled or terminated.

Giga.tel: Full refund only if the eSIM hasn't been installed and no data was used - contact within 5 days of purchase with your order number. If a technical issue (won't download, won't connect) can't be resolved, a refund/partial refund may still be given.

Validity starts

Eskimo: Data plans have no expiration date. Validity starts when the eSIM first connects to a supported network (or transfers data), and the remaining balance never expires unless the account itself is cancelled.

Giga.tel: Standard eSIM plans: validity starts when the plan is activated, not at purchase (confirmed at checkout). A separate 'Connectivity' plan type instead starts immediately after purchase.

Fair-use limit

Eskimo: Fixed data plans have no daily caps or throttling (full speed); Unlimited day passes give 3GB high-speed per day, then unlimited at 1 Mbps.

Giga.tel: Unlimited plans carry a fair-use policy - each plan's own page shows its Daily Allowance and the post-threshold speed; there's no single sitewide GB/day figure or throttle speed.

Top-ups & rollover

Eskimo: Top up from the Eskimo app or website: the new plan is added instantly to your existing eSIM with no reinstallation and kicks in when the current plan reaches 0 MB.

Giga.tel: Add a top-up or a new plan to the same reusable eSIM at any time without reinstalling - just keep the eSIM profile on your device rather than deleting it.

Lost device / reinstalling

Eskimo: Not confirmed yet
