Add up to four plans to the comparison table and read them line by line — data, validity, coverage and price, in your own currency, with nothing rounded away
Using It
- On any destination page, mark the plans you are weighing up
- Open the comparison table
- Read the rows across: allowance, days, countries covered, price
- Remove one and add another until the choice is obvious
What to Compare, in Order
- Coverage first. A cheaper plan that does not cover your second country is not cheaper
- Then validity. Days you are not there are days you paid for
- Then the allowance, against your own usage rather than against the other plan
- Price last. It only means something once the first three match your trip
Prices in the table are what you would actually pay, in the currency you picked in the header — not a converted-at-the-end figure. Four is the limit because a fifth column stops being readable on a phone.
Comparing on price per gigabyte alone is the usual way to buy the wrong plan. A large allowance you will not use is worse value than a small one you finish, whatever the arithmetic says.
If you are not sure what your own usage looks like, get that number first — your phone already recorded it. See How do I Estimate My Data Usage?
