We understand that travel plans can be unpredictable or that mistakes happen during the excitement of preparing for a trip. Whether you accidentally bought a plan for the wrong country or your destination has changed, here is how we can help.
Yleisiä syitä väärän eSIMin ostamiseen
It's easy to make a mistake when selecting a data plan. Often, our users find themselves in these situations:
- Country name confusion: Selecting a country with a similar name (e.g., Austria instead of Australia).
- Origin vs. destination: Accidentally purchasing a plan for your home country instead of your travel destination.
- Regional vs. local eSIM: Buying a single-country eSIM when a regional plan would have been better for your multi-stop itinerary.
Mitä voin tehdä, jos minulla on väärä eSIM?
1. Request a refund
Jos et voi käyttää eSIMiäsi, voit nyt lähettää hyvityspyynnön suoraan Airalo-tilisi kautta.
- How to apply: Go to 'My eSIMs', select your package, and look for the 'Request Refund' button in your 'Package History'. You can also find it in Order Details via Profile > Orders. Please note that the button will only appear for eligible orders, as expired or fully used eSIMs are not eligible.
- Choose a reason for refund: You can pick from 'Wrong purchase', 'Plans changed', 'Installation issues', or 'eSIM not working'. Note that for 'Wrong purchase' and 'Plans changed', the Airmoney option (our in-app currency) is the only available refund method. For the other two, choose between Airmoney or a credit back to your original payment method.
- Käsittelyaika: Airmoney-hyvitys on välitön, mutta hyvitykset alkuperäiselle maksutavalle kestävät tyypillisesti 7–10 arkipäivää (tai jopa 30 päivää pankistasi riippuen).
Tärkeää: Jos olet äskettäin saanut useita automaattisia hyvityksiä, pyyntösi saatetaan lähettää tukitiimillemme manuaalista tarkistusta varten.
2. Share your eSIM with a friend
If you haven't installed your eSIM yet, you can share it with someone else. Just send them the installation QR code you receive in-app after you purchase. As long as it hasn't been installed, it's transferable to any compatible device.
Näin jaat QR-koodisi:
- Kun olet ostanut eSIMisi, avaa sovellus ja valitse 'Omat eSIMit' löytääksesi QR-koodisi.
- Select 'Install or Share', then on the next screen, select 'Share and More'. Your QR code will then appear on the screen.
- You can share this QR code by selecting ‘Share eSIM’ and sending it through the channel of your choice (e.g., by email, through a messaging service, or via your device's 'Quick Share' function). You can also print it or display it on another device for a friend to scan.
