What Happens When You Use All Your Data?

If you're using a Holafly eSIM and wondering, "What happens when you use all your data on your phone?" The answer is simple, once your plan runs out of data, the eSIM stops working. You can’t Top it up after it expires, so you'll need to buy a new one. Don’t worry! We’ll help you check if you’ve actually run out of data or if it's just a connection issue.

How to Know If You Have Exhausted Your Mobile Data?

It’s easy to check if you've used all your data. Simply log in to the Holafly website or app to view the remaining days or available data. Limited data eSIMs or those with a specific daily GB allowance, will automatically expire once you've used up your data or when the purchased days run out. On the other hand, Unlimited Data eSIMs have no daily limits, but they'll expire once the plan period ends. Remember, with Holafly, unused data doesn't roll over and is lost when the plan expires.

To Keep in Mind

Here’s what you should know to manage your Holafly eSIM effectively:

  • The validity period of your eSIM starts when you arrive at your destination, activate it, and connect to a compatible network. The duration depends on the plan or package you purchased.
  • For limited data plans, your data allowance is distributed evenly across the days of your plan. If you're worried about running out of data, you can purchase a top-up plan before your current plan expires.
  • If you have an unlimited data plan, you won’t run out of data, but you might experience slower speeds if you exceed the Fair Usage Policy limit set by the local operator.
  • Once your eSIM validity period ends, you will need to purchase a new package to continue using data.

Troubleshooting Tips

If you still have data or days left on your eSIM but it’s not working, you might be experiencing a connection issue on your iPhone or Android. In this case, your plan is not necessarily used up or expired.
