Three splits roaming into three bands, Go Roam in Europe, Around the World and Around the World Extra, so your destination sets what a trip costs. Our Global eSIM is one flat price by trip length, from USD 9.99 for 3 days, across 165+ countries.<\/p>\n

Land in the wrong band and the daily charge changes with you.<\/p>\n

Three splits roaming into three bands, so your destination sets the bill<\/h2>\n

Three sorts its Go Roam service into Europe, Around the World and Around the World Extra, and each band covers a different list of destinations. Europe covers 49 European destinations, Around the World covers 22 global spots, and Around the World Extra covers 92 additional international locations.<\/p>\n

Then the daily charge kicks in. Three\u2019s Go Roam page puts the Around the World charge at \u00a37 a day for some customers: \u201cIf you joined or upgraded between 1 October 2021 and 17 December 2025, the daily roaming charge will be \u00a37\u201d (Go Roam | Roaming in over 160 destinations, Three Support, 2026).<\/p>\n

You pay by the day, and the band you land in sets the rate.<\/p>\n

Which countries sit in each of Three\u2019s roaming bands?<\/h2>\n

Go Roam in Europe covers European destinations like France, Spain and Germany. Go Roam Around the World covers destinations like the USA, Australia and Hong Kong.<\/p>\n

Go Roam Around the World Extra takes in further locations such as Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, South Africa, Thailand and Egypt. Those are examples. Three\u2019s own band lists hold the full set of destinations.<\/p>\n

Pack for one country and you\u2019ve picked a band without noticing.<\/p>\n

How to price a week abroad on Three roaming against a flat eSIM<\/h2>\n

On Three, a week is seven daily charges, and the rate depends on the band and your contract.<\/p>\n

For Around the World Extra destinations, Three\u2019s page states: \u201cIf you joined or upgraded on or after 18 December 2025, the daily roaming charge will \u00a38. This will start from 1 April 2026 and will be subject to annual price increases.\u201d (Go Roam | Roaming in over 160 destinations | Support | Three, 2026).<\/p>\n

That \u00a38 is a daily rate that rises each year. The flat plan is the same price on day one and day seven.<\/p>\n

How does your contract start date change Three roaming charges?<\/h2>\n

Yes. The date you joined or upgraded sets your daily rate, and Three\u2019s page names more than one date.<\/p>\n

Three\u2019s page gives one example for a particular plan: \u201cIf you joined or upgraded from 1 June 2025 with a SIM Only 24-month Lite plan with 25GB or 120GB data, the daily roaming charge will be \u00a32\u201d (Go Roam | Roaming in over 160 destinations | Support | Three, 2026). The \u00a37 and \u00a38 rates earlier follow their own start dates too.<\/p>\n

Europe adds a second limit. Go Roam in Europe lets you use your UK allowances in 49 European countries and territories, subject to a 12GB monthly data fair use limit.<\/p>\n

Check your join date before you fly. Then pick a plan and get on with the trip.<\/p>\n

How do you add a travel eSIM next to your Three SIM?<\/h2>\n

Install the eSIM once on an eSIM-compatible phone, keep your Three SIM in the tray, and choose the eSIM as the line that carries your data. The eSIM stays on the phone, so the next trip needs only a new plan.<\/p>\n

On an iPhone, Apple\u2019s published procedure runs like this:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Open the Settings app.<\/li>\n
  2. Tap either Cellular or Mobile Data.<\/li>\n
  3. Tap Cellular Data.<\/li>\n
  4. Tap the number you want to use cellular data.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    If you turn on Allow Cellular Data Switching, while you\u2019re on a voice call on your voice-only number, that number automatically switches to use voice and data. This lets you use both voice and data during the call. If you turn it off and you\u2019re active on a voice number that isn\u2019t your designated cellular-data number, cellular data won\u2019t work while you\u2019re on the call (Apple Support, Using Dual SIM with an eSIM).<\/p>\n

    On a Google Pixel, the published procedure is:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Open your Settings app.<\/li>\n
    2. Tap Network & internet SIMs.<\/li>\n
    3. To access data with your mobile network, turn on Mobile data.<\/li>\n
    4. Under \u201cYour primary SIMs,\u201d choose which SIM you want to use for: Data: Tap Mobile data.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Only one SIM can be the default for data. If you already have one set up, you\u2019ll get a notification (Google Pixel Phone Help, Change dual SIM preferences on your Google Pixel phone).<\/p>\n

      Done. Your data goes through the eSIM and your calls stay on your own number.<\/p>\n

      What happens on Three in a country outside its roaming bands?<\/h2>\n

      Three sets a worldwide data roaming limit of \u00a345 plus VAT, and you can ask Three to change or remove it. Three\u2019s published words on it are short.<\/p>\n

      Three\u2019s support page says: \u201cWe\u2019ve also set a worldwide data roaming limit of \u00a345 plus VAT to stop you accidentally overspending. If you\u2019d prefer, you can have this limit removed or changed by contacting us.\u201d (Data charges, Three support page).<\/p>\n

      Which travel eSIM is worth buying instead of paying Three to roam?<\/h2>\n

      Buyers at rival travel eSIM companies report failed installs, dropped connections and slow speeds in their one- and two-star reviews. Those are the tests to run before you pay anyone.<\/p>\n

      A 2-star Trustpilot review of Saily from September 23, 2025, by Michael F., describes landing in Lisbon with barely any signal and a setup that took well over 2 hours. A 1-star Trustpilot review of aloSIM from August 13, 2026, by Osman D., reads: \u201cNo Russian manuals available. I purchased aloSIM for my family while they were traveling, but none of them could set up the eSIM. As an experienced Windows and Android user, I could have probably figured it out by trial and error, but my family couldn\u2019t. It\u2019s way too complicated with English-only instructions. Plus, after my payment successfully processed, the app still asked me to buy the plan again. # update since you are planning to add Russian instructions, I\u2019ll give aloSIM another try. My family is heading to Turkey at the end of August, and if everything goes well, I\u2019ll update my review to 5 stars.\u201d<\/p>\n

      Atlas, 4.5 billion years old, has watched continents drift. A family stuck at an install screen still earns a wince.<\/p>\n

      Maya, Airalo, Holafly, Saily or Nomad: which travel eSIM fits your trip?<\/h2>\n

      Three prices roaming by band and by the day. Travel eSIMs sell in different ways, and the table sets out how each one is sold, what its unlimited plan allows and what it says about calls and numbers.<\/p>\n

      How Maya replaces band-by-band roaming charges with one flat price<\/h2>\n

      One Global eSIM is installed on your phone and stays there permanently. You pick a trip length, and the price is the same in every country, one flat rate across 165+ countries.<\/p>\n

      You can choose a 3-day, 7-day, 14-day or 30-day plan, and each one gives unlimited data across 165+ countries. All plans include a daily high-speed data allowance, the Daily Quota, at up to 4G LTE or 5G where available on local networks.<\/p>\n

      Here are the prices. The 3-day plan costs USD 9.99 (USD 3.33 a day) and suits weekend trips. The 14-day plan costs USD 27.99 (USD 2.00 a day) and is marked Most Popular.<\/p>\n

      Need more days? Buy another plan from the Maya app. For each trip you only buy a new plan, with no reinstalling.<\/p>\n

      Andreas K. gave Maya Mobile five stars on Trustpilot in August 2026: \u201cHave been using Maya mobile for all my recent trips to the US – never had any problems. Setting up the eSIM was easy and Internet access was working instantly when I left the plane.\u201d<\/p>\n

      No band lists. No join dates. Pick your days and go.<\/p>\n

      FAQ<\/h2>\n

      What happens to the eSIM when your plan\u2019s days run out?<\/h3>\n

      Every plan is a one-time purchase, so it ends when its days end. The exception is Auto Top-Up, which is optional, off by default and can be turned off any time from My eSIM. The eSIM stays installed on the phone, ready for the next trip. To add days, extend your plan from the app or buy another plan there.<\/p>\n

      How do you install a travel eSIM before you fly?<\/h3>\n

      Do it on Wi-Fi, because installation needs an internet connection. You can install in three ways on iPhone and Android: automatic, QR code or manual entry. On iOS the QR code method is marked Recommended: choose it in the Maya Mobile app, scan the code with the phone you\u2019re installing on, tap Add eSIM or Add Cellular Plan when notified, and follow the prompts. When you land, switch the eSIM on and select it for Cellular Data, and the plan clock starts then.<\/p>\n

      What does unlimited data mean on a travel eSIM with a daily allowance?<\/h3>\n

      Each plan comes with a Daily Quota, a daily high-speed data allowance that runs at up to 4G LTE or 5G where local networks offer it. Once it is used up, data carries on at standard speed until the day ends. The Daily Quota refreshes on its own every 24 hours, counting from the activation date. No specific speed is guaranteed.<\/p>\n

      How do refunds work on an unused travel eSIM plan?<\/h3>\n

      You get a full refund, less any applicable payment processing fees, if no data has been used and you ask within 30 days of purchase. The Money Back Guarantee covers a cancelled trip, a phone that isn\u2019t compatible with eSIMs, an extra or unneeded data plan, and an eSIM that is unused or consumed no data. The complete refund terms are in the Terms of Service.<\/p>\n

      Which cruise lines does the Global + Cruise plan cover?<\/h3>\n

      Yes, the Global + Cruise plan covers 20+ cruise lines, and it\u2019s a separate purchase from the Global plan, priced on its own. That includes Norwegian Cruise Line, Royal Caribbean International and Carnival Cruise Line. It also covers 165+ countries.<\/p>\n

      How do you stop your main SIM from roaming while the eSIM carries your data?<\/h3>\n

      Use the eSIM plan for data only, with your primary line set as the Default Voice Line. That keeps your data off expensive roaming fees. On an iPhone, open Settings, tap Cellular (Mobile Data in the UK), tap Cellular Data and select the eSIM plan. For Voice\/SMS and iMessage, choose Primary.<\/p>\n

      Which countries does the Global eSIM cover?<\/h3>\n

      One Maya eSIM covers 165+ countries worldwide, including major destinations across all continents. You install it once, and there\u2019s no plan to add per country.<\/p>\n

      \n

      Maya<\/strong> gives you one eSIM, installed once, with unlimited data across 165+ countries at a flat price by trip length, from USD 9.99, so a trip abroad skips the band-by-band roaming bill.<\/p>\n
