Refund policy

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.

MyEsimGlobal: Full refund for unused eSIMs not installed or activated; partial refund after support review otherwise. No refund once installed, activated, or used, except where mandatory law requires it. Requests within 30 days of purchase.

Validity starts

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.

MyEsimGlobal: Validity starts when the eSIM first connects to a local network at the destination, not at purchase — you can buy days or weeks ahead without losing validity time.

Fair-use limit

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.

MyEsimGlobal: Unlimited plans throttle to 1 Mbps once the daily high-speed allowance is used (amount varies by plan/country); resets every 24 hours, no overage charges.

Top-ups & rollover

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.

MyEsimGlobal: No true top-up: when data runs out you buy a new eSIM plan rather than adding data to the existing one, which stays installed on your device.

Lost device / reinstalling

Giga.tel: If a technical/connectivity issue arises, support will troubleshoot or issue a replacement when eligible. Exception: the 'Connectivity' plan type can't be replaced if not installed within 24 hours of receiving the QR code.

MyEsimGlobal: The eSIM profile is single-install: if you delete it, reinstalling may not be possible, and deleting the QR code or eSIM profile is excluded from refunds.

Billing currency

Giga.tel: Prices are shown in USD; Brazil-based customers are charged in Brazilian Reais at a locked exchange rate shown before payment, with no extra currency-conversion fee from Giga.tel.

MyEsimGlobal: Billed in Euros (EUR) only — your bank may apply a currency conversion fee if your card is in a different currency.
