I ordered an eSim for Greece and it simply didn't work upon landing which is what I've come to expect after many similar purchases from other vendors. In my opinion no one should spend valuable time debugging such issues abroad so we simply ordered from a different vendor and everything worked right away. I asked Airhub for a refund and they didn't even reply to my request.

I bought 14 300GB eSIMs for Europe and they all stopped working when they reached 35GB. I filed a complaint with AirHub and they told me they didn't actually provide 300GB and only offered 35GB. I asked for a refund and they never gave it to me. That company is a scam. Stay away if you don't want to be scammed.

AIRHUB is a SCAM. They are thieves who steal your money and give you eSIMs with less GB than they offer.

Nine hours, no QR code, no support, no refund, not even an e-mail from a real person, nothing. Ripoff. I hate to admit it, but I’ve been scammed. How do you allow these scammers to be here? Are you in on it, too?

The signal strength is bad, so the bandwidth is slow.

Airhub

ebroderused in Greece 🇬🇷

Did not have a great experience with Airhub. They had multiple sets of instructions which conflicted with each other. Both instructions said to change the APN from the default configuration but had different values for what to change it to. Internet connection would sometimes stop working entirely *regardless* of what I set it to in Spain, and in Greece only seemed to work when I reset it to the default (not either of the values from the instructions).

Good price per GB, but not that valuable if it doesn't work. I don't plan to use Airhub again in the future.

BNESIM

I tried so many esim providers. Some worked, some less, but when I discovered BNESIM on esimdb I decided to never change. Their prices are amazing, they have real no expiration plans and the prices are very honest.
I used it in my summer vacation in Greece, in a business trip in USA and I could not be more happy. They are the only provider offering international voice calls and virtual numbers, with many other services (VPN!).

This was a surprisingly great experience actually!

I consider myself a little bit of a technophobe so I was VERY hesitant, but the online chat helped me through the installation and was super patient.

Overall, would definitely try again on my next vacation. Hopefully, it’ll arrive sooner rather than later :)

Frequently Asked Questions

How many travel eSIM brands (providers) are available for use in Greece, and how many prepaid data plans are there?

There are roughly 120 eSIM brands available in Greece, and the number of prepaid data plans exceeds 7, 100, offering travelers a wide variety of options to choose from.

Are there any unlimited data eSIM plans available for Greece?

Unlimited data eSIM options are available for travelers visiting Greece. Several providers—Firsty, Yoho Mobile, abesteSIM, Roamify, MicroEsim, Billion Connect, Truely, and Yesim—offer plans with no data cap. Most of these unlimited options come with a speed limitation or potential throttling. Firsty’s free plan is capped at 256 kbps, while the other seven plans typically throttle speed to 5 Mbps, though they may reach higher speeds on 5G or 4G networks. The price range for these unlimited offerings stretches from a complimentary $0.00 with Firsty up to $25.62, depending on the chosen validity period and provider. Travelers who require unrestricted use or plan to stream or upload large files may prefer a provider whose plan retains higher speeds, while budget-conscious visitors can start with the cheaper options and assess their data needs during the trip.

What are the major mobile networks available for a travel eSIM in Greece?

Cosmote: Greece's largest telecom operator, offering extensive mobile coverage nationwide.
Vodafone Greece: A major provider delivering comprehensive mobile services across the country.
Wind Hellas: A significant operator offering a range of mobile services throughout Greece.

In addition to these major Mobile Network Operators (MNOs), Greece hosts several Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs). MVNOs provide mobile services by leasing access from the major carriers. Examples include Q-Telecom and Cyta Mobile. However, most travel eSIMs rely on the infrastructure of MNOs rather than MVNOs.

Can I get a travel eSIM with a phone number and SMS for Greece?

Travel eSIM plans that include a phone number and SMS are available for Greece from several providers, including GlobaleSIM, Roamify, SimOptions and MoreMins. These plans provide an inbound and outbound voice line and SMS capability, but the numbers use foreign dialing codes such as +1, +33, +44 and +420, so they are not local Greek numbers. Prices for data‑only and talk‑plus data plans start around $4 and can go up to roughly $70, with validity periods ranging from 7 days to 30 days.

All plans include a phone number and SMS service. GlobaleSIM offers inbound and outbound voice with inbound SMS, while Roamify, SimOptions and MoreMins provide both inbound and outbound SMS in addition to full voice coverage. Because the dialing codes differ from Greece’s +30, travelers will use a foreign number while roaming in Greece but the service functions normally for calls, texts and data over Greek networks.
