What do I need to do before I fly?
Make sure that your phone is unlocked before you fly!

How do I find my number?
Your phone number will be automatically sent to you once you insert your SIM into your phone and turn it on when you’re in Europe. This will be a Spanish phone number.
If someone would like to call you, they will need the Spanish country code +34 followed by your number.

Can I call USA or Australia with this SIM?
Unfortunately, this SIM doesn’t come with calls/texts to the USA or Australian numbers.

The Unlimited minutes can be used to make local calls to standard landlines and mobiles within all the countries listed. So if you are in Spain you can call Spanish phone numbers. If you are in Italy you can call Italian phone numbers. We’d highly recommend using data applications like FaceTime, Whatsapp, Facebook Messenger, iMessage, Viber or Skype to make calls and texts instead. This will use the data allowance that is allocated to you.
