Guinea-Bissau eSIM questions
When does my Guinea-Bissau plan start counting?
Validity starts when the eSIM first connects to a network in Guinea-Bissau, not when you buy it. Installing early costs you nothing.
Can I make calls in Guinea-Bissau?
Jelly plans are data plans. Calls work over WhatsApp, FaceTime, or any app you already use, and your home number stays reachable on your other SIM.
Can I tether a laptop in Guinea-Bissau?
Yes on most compatible phones. Tethering uses data quickly, so pick a larger plan if a laptop is coming with you.
What if I run out of data in Guinea-Bissau?
Top up from your dashboard. The top up applies to the eSIM already installed, so there is nothing new to scan.
