UK eSIM: London & England SIM

A long weekend of London museums and pubs runs nicely on a fixed data allowance that lasts a week. Two weeks of maps, photos and video calls between London and the Scottish Highlands is a job for Unlimited: the data never stops, it just slows for the rest of the day after a daily high-speed amount. A road trip that wanders from the Cotswolds into Wales, deciding each morning where to sleep, fits the day pass, set anywhere from 1 to 30 days. A month with family in Edinburgh, where people need to call you, is what Data + Calls is for.

A second line, not a new phone This eSIM sits beside the SIM you already have. On the data plans your home number stays live for calls and texts, and your messaging apps keep running on it. Data + Calls adds a UK phone number, which you'll find in the app.

The plans • Data: a set allowance for a week or for a month • Unlimited: runs on 4G; once the daily high-speed amount is used up, the speed drops until the day is over • Day pass: 1 to 30 days, each day with its own amount, and a slower speed for the rest of the day once it's gone • Data + Calls: data, call minutes and texts, with calls and texts inside the UK All of them are prepaid and paid for once, with no contract and nothing that renews. The days start when the eSIM first connects, not when you buy it.

Networks You connect through UK local networks on 4G/LTE, with 5G on the plans and in the places that offer it. Each plan's screen lists its networks before you pay.

Buying and installing Sign in with Apple or with a code sent to your email; there is no password. Pay with Apple Pay or a card, and the eSIM is ready shortly afterward. Install it from your iPhone with one tap, scan a QR code, or type the details in manually. It needs an internet connection, so handle it at home before the flight, then turn the line on once you land. A data calculator helps you pick a plan before you buy. Already in the UK? Buying, installing, topping up and getting help all work from there too.

During the trip • Live balance for each eSIM • A notification when your data is running low • Top-ups in the app for any plan, as long as the eSIM still has time left; an expired eSIM can't be topped up • Several eSIMs side by side in one account

Refunds If you never installed the eSIM and used no data, you get a full refund if you ask within 15 days of purchase, no questions asked.

Devices You need an iPhone XS or later that supports eSIM, is carrier-unlocked and runs iOS 15 or later. Cellular iPads that support eSIM are fine as well.

Carrying on to Dublin or Galway after Britain? The Ireland & UK plan keeps one eSIM across the Irish Sea. Heading to the continent instead? Look at the Europe plans. Both come as fixed data, the Europe plans also as some day passes, and neither has an unlimited option.
