Questions about Hungary eSIMs
Is a Hungary eSIM worth it for a festival week?
For a week of set times and lost friends, yes.
Data of your own means you are not waiting on a password from a bar, and it is the same plan in the city as on the site, within what the coverage list names.
Should I take my phone into the Budapest baths?
Leave it in the locker.
Wet hands, steam and a crowded changing room are a bad mix, so agree where to meet afterwards before you hand your things over rather than relying on a message later.
Do I need data to get home late in Budapest?
To find a ride or work out which night service runs, yes, and that is the hour you least want to be guessing.
Save the address in your own language and in the local spelling before you go out.
What is coverage like outside Budapest?
The coverage list on this page names Hungary and goes no further than that.
A village, a vineyard and a long flat stretch of road are not on it one by one, so expect nothing in particular and carry the map offline.
Will posting photos from Hungary eat my plan?
Stills barely dent it.
Video is the thing that empties a plan, so if you are filming the week rather than photographing it, take a bigger size and send it up at the flat instead of on the street.
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
Festival sites are crowded in a way that no plan fixes.
Screenshot the set times and the meeting point in the morning, so the evening does not depend on anything loading.
Hungary and the network your plan runs on are named on the coverage list beside the plans.
It is an answer for the country, so the Great Plain and the hills north of the river are each their own question.
A locker, a cloakroom or a bath house is a bad place for a phone.
Decide before you go in how you will find the others afterwards, and agree a time as well as a place.
Keep your usual SIM switched on for calls and texts, and choose the eSIM for mobile data.
