10 piani per Sri Lanka, da 3 a 50 GB. La validità va da 1 giorno a 180 giorni. Nessuno di questi va in 5G: in Sri Lanka le reti che rivendiamo sono solo LTE. Preferiamo dirtelo qui, invece di fartelo scoprire all'arrivo.
6 piani possono essere ricaricati senza installare una seconda eSIM. I piani si appoggiano a Hutch.
Numeri contati sul catalogo vero, non messi lì dal marketing: sono gli stessi piani che vedi elencati qui sopra.
In Sri Lanka non arriva nessun pacchetto regionale: qui l'unica opzione è il piano del singolo paese, che comunque di solito costa meno.
Un'eSIM di viaggio per Sri Lanka è una SIM digitale che il telefono si scarica: niente tessera di plastica, niente banco da cercare in aeroporto. Compri online, tocchi il link che ti arriva per email (nella stessa email c'è anche il QR) e sul telefono compare una seconda linea, accanto alla tua SIM di sempre. Resta ferma finché non arrivi in Sri Lanka, poi si aggancia da sola a Hutch su LTE. Il tuo numero continua a funzionare per chiamate e SMS: l'eSIM porta solo i giga.
Mappe, messaggi e app per i taxi consumano poco: circa 300–500 MB al giorno. Se ci aggiungi foto, social e qualche video sei vicino a 1 GB al giorno. Per una settimana un piano da 5 GB sta comodo; per due settimane, o se condividi l'hotspot e guardi video, meglio 10 GB o più, oppure un piano ricaricabile che puoi rimpolpare in viaggio. I piani per Sri Lanka partono da 8,70 € in 6 tagli, e su ognuno trovi il prezzo al GB: il confronto lo fai in due secondi.
No. Un'eSIM di viaggio per Sri Lanka è un piano dati locale, non roaming internazionale: paghi in anticipo il prezzo che vedi, senza nessun conteggio al megabyte da parte del tuo operatore. Imposta l'eSIM come linea dati e spegni il roaming dati sulla SIM di casa: al ritorno non trovi sorprese in bolletta. E fino a quando non la installi ti rimborsiamo tutto, quindi comprarla in anticipo non è un rischio.
