[QUOTE="Sandra Wolf, post: 1106013, member: 71396"] Hi. I ended up with a Vodafone SIM prior to setting off to walk the Norte. We were told at the time that we needed to be Spanish residents to have a eSIM, and there was no mobile number with an eSIM. My husband ended up tethering his iPad to my phone for data. I had bought a Samsung Galaxy S22 prior to leaving Australia, with the capability of using a physical SIM and and eSIM. We wanted to retain my physical SIM for 2-step-verification from the bank back in Australia, and use the eSIM in Spain. As I said, it did not work out that way. Aside from that, I would not go with Vodafone again. I have used Vodafone on two Caminos, and also in Australia. This time, the Vodafone sales assistant in San Sebastian sold us 2 months of calls and data, but we only had coverage for 1 month, then it cut out. We ended up having to buy another package - with a different mobile number - to see us through to the end of our walk. For what it's worth, we used FindPenguin and did trial walks with it prior to leaving for Spain. We had issues with linking friends up back in Australia to follow our journey, and it was difficult trying to contact the product developer in Germany via the software. I found the program not to be intuitive at all when requesting help or resolving the linking issues. On our next Camino I am going to give Polarsteps a go, as I have read it's a lot more intuitive and with fewer hassles. [/QUOTE]
