Refund policy

DingsGlobal: Refund only if the eSIM was never activated/used, and only for DINGS's own fault (failed install/activation, a retired service, or an unresolved technical issue after 10 days to fix it) -- not a change of mind. Must be requested within 30 days of purchase; goes to account credit or the original payment method within 30 business days.

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

DingsGlobal: The EU-style 14-day withdrawal right ends the moment the eSIM is activated or first used -- in effect, validity starts at activation/first use, not at purchase.

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

DingsGlobal: DINGS offers both fixed-data and Unlimited plans; Unlimited plans carry a fair-use policy and speed throttling after a threshold that varies per plan (their own FAQ; no single sitewide number stated).

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

DingsGlobal: Plan-specific -- some DINGS plans support a top-up/extension, others require buying a new eSIM. Check the individual plan.

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.
