I don't have any data after installing my eSIM. What should I do?
If you are already in the Principality:
1. Restart your device.
2. Make sure that the Andorra Telecom line is set as "Default data".
3. If the problem persists, contact our personal agent for assistance.
Does my eSIM work outside Andorra?
Do I need to deactivate my regular operator's physical SIM card?
On your phone, you can easily manage this in Settings → Mobile data / Cellular, by selecting:
• Andorra Telecom eSIM as the "Default data line".
• Deactivate data roaming on your physical SIM card if you are outside your home country.
This will ensure that all data uses your eSIM and that there are no unexpected additional charges.
Please note that Andorra Telecom cannot be held responsible for any roaming or data usage charges applied by your usual operator.
