Preguntas frecuentes
Why does a travel plan not work at home?+
Because the profile can only connect to the partner networks in whichever countries the plan page names. If home is not on that list, there simply is no network for it to connect to at all.
Can leftover data still be used after returning home?+
It can still be used only within countries that plan covers. If home is not on that list, the leftover data cannot be used at home even though it has not expired; the only route is saving it for a future trip back to that same country.
Does a regional plan always cover every country in that region?+
Not always; some plans name only certain countries within that region. The full list on the plan page needs opening before concluding which countries it actually covers.
If activation is attempted at home despite not being on the list, can the team fix it?+
No, since this is a limitation of what was purchased from the start, not a technical issue that can be fixed. The plan simply has no partner network in that country to connect to.
For backup internet within my own country, should a travel plan be bought?+
This is not recommended, since it is built mainly for use abroad within its named list. Looking for a SIM or plan specifically designed for in-country use is the better route instead.
How can I tell which plan covers my own country?+
Open the detail page of whichever plan is of interest and check the country list stated there directly. If unsure which plan to pick, the team can be asked directly.
