Refund policy

MicroEsim: Conditional refund: full/partial if your device is eSIM-incompatible, the eSIM never connects (full minus a small admin fee), or it works only intermittently (partial, prorated). No refund once the plan has expired unused, once installed on a device (no transfers), for a wrong checkout email, or a simple change of mind. Approved refunds go back to the original payment method, up to 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

MicroEsim: Validity starts when you activate data roaming on the eSIM (connect to the network), not when you first install/add it to the device.

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

MicroEsim: Unlimited plans: 'true unlimited' plans may be throttled for the rest of the day once usage typically exceeds 10GB in a single day (resets daily); plans with a high-speed cap drop to 128kbps once that allowance is used.

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

MicroEsim: No — an existing eSIM's data allowance can't be renewed or topped up; buy a new eSIM for more data (per their FAQ).

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.
