London is calling! But since the UK left the European Union, the rules for mobile roaming have changed. The days of guaranteed "Rome Like at Home" are over for many travelers.
Warning: Many EU carriers now charge £2-£5 per day for using data in the UK.
Imagine spending a week in London and coming home to an extra €35 on your phone bill just for using Maps and Instagram. That's the cost of a nice meal in Soho!

The Solution: A UK-Specific eSIM
ViaConecta provides a dedicated UK eSIM that works independently of your home carrier. It connects to premium local networks like O2 and Three, ensuring you have 4G/5G speed everywhere from the Underground to the Scottish Highlands.
Why it is better than roaming:
- Fixed Cost: You pay once for your data (e.g., 3GB or 5GB). No daily fees. No surprises.
- Keep Your Number: Unlike a tourist SIM, you keep your main number active for calls, so 2FA bank SMS codes still arrive.
- Instant Delivery: Scan the QR code and you are ready.
How to Activate for Your Trip
- Before you fly, visit the United Kingdom Page.
- Choose a plan that fits your trip (e.g. 3GB for a weekend).
- Install the eSIM profile.
- When you land at Heathrow or Gatwick, simply switch your Mobile Data to "ViaConecta".
Don't let Brexit politics ruin your connectivity. Stay online smart.
