MiFi using a data sim in Turkey
Couple of things to be aware of :
The old Vodafone router may be network locked to Vodafone, so other networks SIM cards won’t work in it
Also :
”We (Smarty)will monitor your usage, and if you spend 60 consecutive days abroad, we have the right to suspend all services on your account. This means that you will not be able to use your SIM. Roaming while in or outside the EU counts towards your consecutive use. We'll send you an alert two weeks before the suspension is applied.” which is from :
Yes I accept there are limits to how much data is fair use obvs not "unlimited", if the time is limited to 60 days roaming then it looks like a no go. I have used the local sim option before but a tourist sim expires after 30 days. It is possible to to extend coverage to 60 days by purchasing another sim however you can only purchase a max of two sim cards against your passport so again not an option. People have mentioned using an Esim there but my Phone is not suitable.
Thanks for the advice looks like I will have to keep to local sim providers.
