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

Robertoused in Greece 🇬🇷

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

There are more than 100 travel eSIM providers and more than 6, 100 prepaid data plans available for Greece. The wide variety of options makes it easy for travellers to find an eSIM that suits their needs.

Are there any unlimited data eSIM plans available for Greece?

Unlimited data eSIM options are available for travelers heading to Greece from several providers. Firsty offers a free plan that includes advertising and limits speeds to 256 kbps, while Yoho Mobile, Airhub, Roamify, MicroEsim, Billion Connect, abesteSIM, Truely and Yesim provide unlimited data with varying validity periods ranging from 1 to 15 days. The prices for these plans span from approximately $0.00 to $27.25 USD, depending on the provider and the length of the validity period. Most plans allow tethering but may throttle speeds, with limits commonly set at 5 Mbps or lower; a few still support 3G, 4G, 5G, or LTE networks. Travelers should factor in their expected data usage and choose a plan that comfortably covers their needs while keeping in mind potential speed restrictions.

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?

Yes, several travel eSIMs that include a phone number and SMS support are available for Greece. The providers that offer these plans are GlobaleSIM, Amigo eSIM, Roamify, SimOptions, and MoreMins eSIM. All of these plans provide inbound and outbound voice calling and SMS messaging, but the telephone number uses a foreign dialing code such as +1, +44, +33, or +420, rather than the local Greek code +30.

The plans cover a range of data amounts—from 1GB up to 100GB or more—and prices start around $4 for a 1GB, 7‑day plan and can reach more than $50 for a 100GB, 30‑day package. Validity periods are typically 30 days, though some smaller data plans are available for 7 or 10 days. Travelers can use these eSIMs directly when they arrive in Greece and receive a fully functional phone number that can send and receive SMS.
