Questions about Romania eSIMs
Will a plan work on the mountain roads?
Not everywhere.
The coverage list on this page is Romania and no part of it, so a pass, a valley floor and the climb between them are not answered one by one.
Save the route before you go up.
Do I need data to visit a monastery?
For the opening hours and the drive in it helps.
Inside you will want the phone put away anyway, so look up whatever you need in the car park rather than at the door.
How do I find a guesthouse down an unmarked lane?
By asking the owner for the pin and saving it before you set off.
A message thread on the phone is also the quickest way to say that you are running late.
Is a translation app worth having in Romania?
In a small village it earns its place.
Download the language pack at home so it still answers when the data does not, because that is exactly when you will be asking it something.
Is one plan enough for a loop of a fortnight?
Inside the country there is nothing to swap.
One plan answers for what the coverage list names, so a slow circuit runs on the same data for as long as its days and its size hold out.
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
Write down where you are sleeping as well as saving it.
A loop through small places means arriving late with one bar and a name you cannot pronounce.
Romania is what the coverage list on this page answers for, together with the network your plan uses.
A monastery up a side road, a pass between two valleys and the climb in are each their own matter.
Ask for a telephone number rather than an email when you book something small.
A call that connects beats a message nobody reads.
Keep your usual SIM switched on for calls and texts, and choose the eSIM for mobile data.
Still need help?
Email us your order reference, and we'll help you get connected.
