Common Questions
Why do UK operators require 24 months and you don't?
UK operators use 24-month contracts to recoup subsidised device costs. As a licensed MVNO without device subsidies, we offer flexible 6 or 12-month terms without long-term commitment.
What does the 3-year rate lock mean?
The rate you purchase at is guaranteed for 3 years — even if you renew. UK operators increase prices annually. With Unlimit Mobile, your rate is fixed. No surprises, no inflation adjustments.
How does Free eSIM Port-In work?
If you already have a UK number, we transfer it to your Unlimit Mobile SIM at zero cost. No porting fee — typically completes within a few hours.
Do I need a UK address or UK bank account?
Neither. No UK address, no credit check, no UK bank account required. You can purchase from any country before you arrive.
Why choose this over Airalo or an international eSIM?
Airalo gives you data only — no UK number, no calls, no texts. We give you a real UK local number on Vodafone & Three with Unlimited Talk & Text, plus scholarships and internships no eSIM app can offer.
