Questions about Argentina eSIMs
Do I need data for the class groups?
That is where the timetable actually lives, so yes.
A room change on the day, a cancelled class or a teacher standing in for another all come through as messages nobody prints out.
Is one plan enough for a month in one city?
Check the days on each card against the weeks you are staying, because the plan has to outlast the trip rather than the other way round.
Adding more later is possible where the plan allows it.
What about getting home late at night?
Have the address and the route saved before the evening starts rather than at the end of it.
A phone that cannot load anything at that hour turns a short walk into a long one.
Can the flat's connection carry a month of classes?
Not beyond the front door.
At a hall, on a bus or standing outside a venue it does nothing for you, and a month of that adds up to a lot of missed messages.
What about a few days away from the city?
Treat it as its own question.
The coverage list on this page answers for Argentina rather than for a valley, a lake road or a town at the end of one, so count on less the further you go.
Can I keep my own number while I study there?
That is the usual way to do it.
Your own SIM stays in for calls and texts, the plan here takes the data, and nobody at home has to learn a new number for a month.
Questions about every Ryvo plan
Will it work on my phone?
Does it come with a phone number?
No.
Ryvo eSIMs are data only.
There's no phone number, and you can't make calls or send texts on the eSIM itself.
Can I keep my usual number?
Yes.
Keep your main SIM on for calls and texts, and set the eSIM as your mobile data line.
Your carrier's roaming rates still apply to calls and texts, so check them before you go.
Can I share my data as a hotspot?
It depends on the plan.
Each plan says whether hotspot is allowed before you pay.
What if I run out of data?
Add data from your order page if your plan can be topped up.
If it can't, buy another plan for the same destination.
What if my eSIM won't connect?
Email us and we'll work through it with you, starting with your phone's mobile data settings.
If we can't get it working, our refund policy explains what happens next.
Before you go
The coverage list on this page names Argentina and the network your plan runs on, and it answers for the country.
A basement hall or a late walk home is not something it speaks to.
Let the class groups through to your notifications for the month.
A venue that changes on the afternoon is the sort of thing that only ever arrives as a message.
A long night means a phone that has been on all day.
Save the way home early and keep a battery pack in the bag, because a dead handset at that hour is a real problem.
Keep your usual SIM switched on for calls and texts, and choose the eSIM for mobile data.
