“On the website they have misleading informations, for the package that I have purchased - 15 Days Unlimited Data Europe, on the same page it says it supports Austria, Hungary, Czech Republic, and also this countries are missing from the list of supported countries with flags.. I contacted support and they explicitly confirmed that it works there.
Once I reached the Hungary, I had no data, because my eSIM could connect only to 2G networks. I reached the support again but they told me that my eSIM is blocked due to misuse. But how can I connect with it to 2G then?! They didn't told me what was the misuse.
I asked for refund but they closed the chat thread, since I got the answer, but no service and for my work more importantly no internet.”

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

Magyar Telekom: The largest telecommunications company in Hungary, offering extensive 4G/LTE coverage and advanced 5G services.

One: Previously operating as Vodafone Hungary, One delivers widespread 4G/LTE coverage and is actively developing its 5G network.

Additionally, Hungary hosts several Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs), such as Digi Mobil and Lycamobile. These MVNOs lease network access from the major carriers to offer their own mobile services. However, it's important to note that most travel eSIMs rely on the infrastructure of the primary MNOs rather than MVNOs.
