With the eSIM UK Fixed Data & Calls plans, you can make phone calls. Once you arrive at your destination, you will receive a message with the phone number. For detailed information, please refer to the product page.
Please note that, aside from eSIM UK Fixed Data & Calls plans, other plans are data-only and do not include a local phone number. As a result, calls and SMS are not available with these plans.
However, you can use messaging apps like WhatsApp or Skype to make calls using your data plan.
There are two possible scenarios depending on your eSIM plan:
01. Activation upon connection to the local network (e.g., upon arrival at your destination):
◦ You can purchase and activate your eSIM before your trip.
02. Activation upon installation on your phone:
◦ We suggest installing the eSIM one day before your trip or once you arrive at your destination.
