FAQs

Will this work on my Indian phone?

If you have an iPhone XS or newer, it supports eSIM. Google Pixel 4+ and Samsung Galaxy S20+ also work. Your phone must be SIM-unlocked. Most carriers unlock phones on request if the device is paid off. Note: some budget Indian-market phones may not support eSIM — check your settings for "Add eSIM" before purchase.

When does the plan start?

When you first connect to T-Mobile in the USA — not when you buy it. Buy it weeks ahead, install the QR code at home, and it waits for you to land.

Will my WhatsApp and iMessage still work?

Yes. Your Indian number stays active for iMessage and SMS via your primary SIM. The eSIM provides data in the USA. WhatsApp, FaceTime, and all data apps work over T-Mobile 5G at no extra cost.

What if I need more data?

Top up anytime from your account dashboard. Add 10GB for a flat rate. No new QR code or install needed.

Do I get a US phone number?

No — this is data-only. You don't need one. WhatsApp, FaceTime, Google Maps, Uber, and everything else works over data. Your existing apps and contacts work exactly as they do at home.

I'm flying from IGI Delhi. Can I install before departure?

Yes. Delhi IGI, Mumbai CSIA, and Bangalore KIA all have free Wi-Fi. Install the eSIM at the gate before boarding. It won't activate until you reach the USA.
