Looking for a UK eSIM With Unlimited Data and Local Calls? Here's What Nomad eSIM Offers
Because you deserve more for all your trips - more speed, freedom, savings, and more ways to stay connected.
Staying Connected in the United Kingdom
Traveling to the UK should be exciting, not a scramble to find Wi-Fi or decode confusing roaming charges. Yet for many international travelers, mobile connectivity remains one of the biggest friction points of any trip.
Most travel eSIM options fall short in one of two ways: data-only plans that leave you unable to make calls or receive verification texts, or "unlimited" data plans that quietly throttle your speeds after a few gigabytes. Neither is good enough for the way modern travelers work, explore, and stay in touch.
That's the gap Nomad eSIM was built to close, with the launch of new UK-specific eSIM plans designed to fix both problems.
Introducing Nomad eSIM’s New UK Plans
UK Full-Speed Unlimited Plan (30 Days): For Heavy Data Users and Digital Nomads
If you've ever hit an invisible data wall mid-trip, you know exactly why this plan matters.
Our UK Full-Speed Unlimited Plan is powered by Vodafone's UK network and delivers genuine, unrestricted 5G data for a full 30 days, with no Fair Usage Policy (FUP) and no throttling at any point.
Here's what we at Nomad believe everyone should know about Fair Usage Policy (FUP) in Unlimited plans: FUP is the fine print that makes most "unlimited" plans feel anything but limitless usage. Once you hit a hidden data threshold, your speeds drop, often right when you need them most. Our UK Full-Speed Unlimited Plan has no FUP, period. What you see is what you get, from day one to day thirty.
At as little as $1.63 USD per day, it's built for travelers who are online constantly: streaming, navigating, video-calling, and working on the go. More bandwidth, less worry for every day of your trip.
What's included:
- Truly unlimited 5G data, full speed for all 30 days
- No Fair Usage Policy (FUP) speed restrictions
- Hotspot and tethering supported, share across multiple devices
- Powered by Vodafone UK network
Best for: Heavy data users, digital nomads, long-stay travelers, group travelers sharing a hotspot.
UK Calls, Data & Text Plan: All-in-One Connectivity for Every Traveler
Most travel eSIMs give you data. This one gives you everything.
The UK Calls, Data & Text Plan is Nomad's first-ever full-service eSIM offering, combining mobile data with a dedicated local UK phone number for voice calls and SMS. No physical SIM card. No separate apps for calling. Just seamless, all-in-one connectivity from the moment you arrive.
This matters more than it sounds. Whether you're booking a restaurant, receiving a two-factor authentication code, or calling a local contact, having a real UK number eliminates the friction that data-only eSIMs can't solve.
The plan is available in multiple tiers ranging from 5GB to 50GB designed to scale with different travel needs:
- 5GB + 100 SMS + 100 mins — $13USD
- 10GB + 200 SMS + 200 mins — $19USD
- 20GB + 300 SMS + 300 mins — $26USD
- 50GB + 450 SMS + 450 mins — $39USD
All tiers include 5G speeds (where available), hotspot functionality, and full UK coverage.
Best for: Travelers who need a local number, remote workers expecting calls, anyone frustrated by data-only eSIMs.
What Makes These UK eSIM Plans Different?
The First Nomad eSIM With Calls and Texts
The UK Calls, Data & Text Plan marks a new chapter for Nomad. It's our first plan to include voice and SMS — a direct response to traveler feedback about the gap left by data-only eSIMs. While it's currently being piloted in the UK, there is strong potential to bring this format to more destinations in the future.
Instant Activation, Zero Hassle
Both plans are fully digital. No physical SIM cards, no phone reboots, no waiting. Your eSIM activates automatically when you land in the UK. Data usage and plan management are all accessible through the Nomad app or website.
How to Get Your UK eSIM
Getting set up takes only a few minutes:
- Visit the Nomad eSIM website or open the Nomad eSIM app
- Select your UK eSIM plan
- Install your eSIM digitally
