Policies compared

Confirmed from each provider's own site — see the trust card on each provider page for the verification date.

ID verification

ByteSim: Not confirmed yet

Sim Local: Not confirmed yet

Refund policy

ByteSim: Full or partial refund for connection issues, depending on the situation; no cancellation fees and a money-back guarantee (ByteSIM FAQ). Full terms are on their Refunds Policy page.

Sim Local: Full refund within 14 days if the eSIM has not been activated, no questions asked; failed activations caused by a technical issue are refunded even outside that window.

Validity starts

ByteSim: Most plans start when the eSIM first connects to a network at the destination; some start on a selected date, in the app or (e.g. the Giffgaff UK eSIM) from purchase, as stated on the product page. Installing early usually does not start the plan; some QR codes must be used within 180 days.

Sim Local: Validity trigger varies by network operator - some start counting when the eSIM is installed, others only on first connection at your destination; check the specific plan for which applies.

Fair-use limit

ByteSim: Unlimited plans may be subject to a local operator fair-use policy: heavy use in a short period can be temporarily slowed or deprioritised (1080p streaming still possible), lifted the following day. The per-plan speed policy is stated on each product page.

Sim Local: Unlimited plans include up to 10GB per day of full-speed data; consistently exceeding 10GB per day may trigger the Fair Use Policy and plan suspension, at the discretion of the network operator (no fixed throttle speed is disclosed).

Top-ups & rollover

ByteSim: No top-ups or extensions: data on an existing eSIM cannot be renewed; buy a new eSIM when you need more (ByteSIM FAQ: not supported due to the anonymous nature of their eSIM products).

Sim Local: Top-up ability and method depend on the network operator (for example the My3, EE, or Lycamobile apps or sites), accessed via Sim Local My eSIM account area; a few operators do not support top-ups at all.
