A week in Northern Cyprus: your UK network vs eSIM
None of the 15 UK networks publishes a data pass for Northern Cyprus that we could verify, so there is no side-by-side here. We compare each network’s public roaming passes and daily rates. Some plans have roaming built in (for example Vodafone Global Roam, O2 Ultimate, Three Complete and Sky Diamond VIP), so check your own plan. On the eSIM, 5.6GB for a week (0.8GB a day) comes to £11.97 with 3 × 2 GB for 15 days. Ask your network for its Northern Cyprus rates and put the two side by side.
The rest of Cyprus
This plan is for Northern Cyprus, on the Turkcell network. For the rest of the island there is the Cyprus plan; the Cyprus page explains which plan works where and how UK networks charge in the north.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a day of mobile data cost in Northern Cyprus?
On plans with a fixed data allowance, £0.20 to £0.60 a day in Northern Cyprus: 3 GB for 30 days at £5.99 is the lowest daily price, 20 GB for 30 days the highest. The plan that costs least for the whole trip: for 7 days, 1 GB at £0.43 a day; for 15 days, 2 GB at £0.27 a day; for 30 days, 3 GB at £0.20 a day. Unused days are not refunded.
Which network does the eSIM use in Northern Cyprus?
Only Turkcell (4G): it is the single partner network for Northern Cyprus in the catalogue. Where Turkcell has no coverage, this eSIM has no signal either, so on a remote route check that Turkcell covers it.
What if the eSIM doesn't work when you land in Northern Cyprus?
Check, in this order: data roaming is on for the eSIM line, the eSIM is chosen as the line for mobile data, and aeroplane mode is off. Then the APN: on this plan it is entered by hand on Android, globaldata. Give the phone a few minutes to register on Turkcell; that first registration is what starts the plan’s days. Still no connection? See what to check when the eSIM has no signal abroad.
General questions have their own pages: how card payment works, refund policy, how to install an eSIM and help and FAQ.
Prices come from our partner operator’s catalogue and may change; the amount at the moment of payment applies. We are not a mobile operator: network access is provided by the partner operator, under the plan’s terms. See the terms and the refund policy.
