Change of plans? No problem. Purchase your eSIM Cover with added peace of mind — you have up to 6 months from your purchase date to request a refund.
1. Types of Refunds
✓ Full Refund — eSIM Not Activated
If you change your plans and no longer need your eSIM, we will provide a full refund, provided the eSIM has not been activated or installed on any device. This applies within 6 months of purchase.
✓ Full Refund — Incompatible or Locked Device
If you purchased an eSIM and your device is not compatible or is carrier-locked, we will provide a full refund. Please contact our support team first for assistance — we can often help resolve setup issues without needing a refund.
⚠ Full or Partial Refund — Connection Issues
If your eSIM does not work due to an issue with our service or the network infrastructure in your destination country is unstable, we will evaluate your case and offer a full or partial refund. You must first contact our support team and allow us reasonable time to diagnose and resolve the issue. Refund amounts for partially used plans will be prorated based on actual consumption.
2. When Refunds Are NOT Available
Refunds are generally not available in the following circumstances:
- The eSIM has been successfully activated and the data plan is functioning as described
- You change your mind after the eSIM has been installed and data service has been used
- Your device does not support eSIM technology (please verify compatibility before purchase)
- You are in an area with limited or no network coverage that was disclosed in the product description
- You accidentally deleted the eSIM from your device after installation
- Network speeds are reduced under the Fair Usage Policy disclosed on the product page (e.g., after daily high-speed allowance on unlimited plans is consumed)
- The data plan has already expired
3. How to Request a Refund
The refund process is simple:
- Self-Service Cancellation (fastest): For orders not yet activated, open My Orders in your account and tap Cancel Order. Your full refund is processed automatically to your original payment method — no support ticket needed.
- Contact Support: For activated eSIMs or any other case, reach out to our Customer Support Team through the channels listed below. Please provide your order number and a brief description of the issue.
- Troubleshooting: For technical issues, our team will work with you to diagnose and resolve the problem. Please provide any diagnostic information requested (screenshots, device settings, etc.).
- Review: We aim to review and respond to all refund requests within 24-48 hours.
- Refund Processing: Once approved, your refund will be processed to your original payment method within 5-10 business days, depending on your payment provider.
4. Partial Refunds
Partial refunds may be granted in cases where:
- The eSIM was partially functional for a period before a service interruption occurred
- A significant portion of the data plan remained unused at the time the issue was reported
- Network coverage was materially different from what was advertised, and this affected a meaningful portion of your usage period
- Partial refunds are calculated on a pro-rata basis, taking into account the data already consumed and the days of service already provided
5. Disputed Transactions and Chargebacks
If you have a concern about a charge, please contact us first before filing a dispute with your bank or credit card provider. We can often resolve issues much faster than the formal chargeback process. For chargebacks initiated without first contacting us:
- Your account may be temporarily suspended during the investigation
- We will provide evidence of the transaction, product delivery, and any eSIM activation or usage to the payment provider
- Frivolous or fraudulent chargebacks may result in permanent account closure
6. Third-Party Purchases
If you purchased your eSIM through one of our authorized resellers or affiliate partners, please contact that seller directly for refund requests. Their refund policy may differ from ours, and eSIM Cover can only process refunds for purchases made directly through esimcover.com or our official mobile applications.
7. Payment Processing Fees
For approved refunds — including self-service cancellations before activation — we refund the full purchase amount including any applicable taxes. We do not deduct our payment processing fees. The refund is issued to your original payment method and typically appears within 5-10 business days, depending on your payment provider.
8. Important Notes
- eSIM Cover acts as a reseller of connectivity services provided by mobile network operators. We facilitate refunds as outlined in this Policy but cannot guarantee service availability, network quality, or coverage in specific locations as these are controlled by our network partners.
- Our Refund Policy does not affect your statutory consumer rights under applicable law. You may have additional rights depending on your country of residence.
- We reserve the right to modify this Refund Policy at any time. Changes apply to purchases made after the effective date of the revised policy.
- For purchases made during promotional sales, the refund amount will be the actual amount paid, not the regular list price.
