Arriving in United Kingdom
London is a city you cross underground, and signal in the tunnels is arriving line by line rather than all at once. The route you want is the one loaded before the escalator down, not after it, and that small habit decides how the first evening goes.
The UK left the EU roaming arrangement, so a plan for the UK and a plan for Europe are two separate products now. That catches people who used to travel across both on one, and it is the sort of thing better settled at home than at a boarding gate.
Dublin or a few days on the continent changes the arithmetic. Before paying for two plans, look for a row above that covers Ireland or the continent as well; the country count printed under each plan name is what tells you.
How it works
Tell us where you are going
A few questions about the trip and the phone, then we match a plan to it. The price is on screen before you sign in.
Pay once
One payment for one trip. Nothing renews, and there is nothing to cancel later.
Install before you fly
Your eSIM arrives within a couple of minutes of paying. Installing takes about two minutes on Wi-Fi, and the plan only starts when you connect at your destination.
What you need
- A phone that takes an eSIM and is not locked to one network. Most phones sold in the last few years qualify, and the help page has the model lists and the one-minute check.
- These are data plans. You keep your own number, and calls and text messages stay on the SIM you already carry.
- Data Roaming switched on for the eSIM line. A travel eSIM reaches the local network by roaming, so that toggle is how the plan works rather than an extra charge, and it is the most common reason a new eSIM looks dead.
- Wi-Fi to install on. It takes about two minutes, which is why doing it at home is the calm version.
- Every row above says how many countries its plan covers. A plan works on the local networks its operator has agreements with, the same way roaming does.
Questions about United Kingdom
- When does the plan start?
- Most plans start when the eSIM first connects to a network in United Kingdom rather than when you buy or install it, so buying a few days early usually costs nothing. Each plan states what it does about its own clock on its own page.
- Will it work on my phone?
- It needs a phone that takes an eSIM and is not locked to a single network. The help page lists the models and shows the check for iPhone and Android, which takes about a minute.
- Do I keep my own number?
- Yes. The eSIM is a second line for data, and your usual SIM stays in the phone with your number and your calls on it.
- What does a data plan mean here?
- It means the plan is bought for data: maps, messaging apps, email, tickets and everything else that travels over a connection. Calls and text messages stay with your usual SIM.
- Can I add more data later?
- Some plans accept a top-up and some do not, which each plan states on its own page. If yours does not, buying a second plan works, and there is nothing to cancel first.
- Should I install it before I travel?
- Yes, on Wi-Fi at home. Installing needs a connection and takes about two minutes, and it is the step nobody wants to be doing in an arrivals hall.
