This is another update of my older posts about the currently available prepaid data plans, add-ons and offers in Greece. This will be a shorter overview because all four mobile operators offer more or less the same data plans while they all have now comprehensive English sites. For more detailed information and useful tips check my older posts (links on my signature) and/or visit the English pages of the operators.
1. Pre-activated data plans The following data plans are the default plans when you purchase a new SIM prepaid card or when you haven’t already activated some other data plan. They don’t charge anymore on volume basis but on daily basis. They offer 10-20MB per day for 1€ and after that they may (or may not) limit the connection speed (Cosmote and Vodafone) or they charge additionally (Wind and Q-Mobile).
2. Small volume data plans The following data plans include 60MB (or 120MB on offer) per month for 3€. Most expire automatically after 30 days and there is usually no limit to the number of bundles a user can purchase within the 30 days. If you purchase a new plan within those 30 days the new 60MBs are added to any remaining MBs and the bundle is extended for additional 30 days. Tip: those plans are generally not recommended because the “Middle volume data plans” on the next section are most cost effective.
3. Medium volume data plans The following data plans generally include 120MB per month for 5€ but currently they offer 500 to 1024MB per month which makes them much more cost-effective than the previous “small volume data plans”. All expire automatically after 30 days and there is no limit to the number of bundles a user can purchase within the 30 days. If you purchase a new plan within those 30 days the new 500MBs are added to any remaining MBs and the bundle is extended for additional 30 days.
4. Large volume data plans The following data plans are recommended for computers and tablets but of course you can use them on the phones as long as you are not interested on voice/SMS. The SIM card is a special card that does not offer voice, it offers only data and sometimes SMS (with a special application). The activation and the validity, balance/duration checks are performed only through a web interface.
That's the most important information about the current prepaid mobile data offers in Greece. If you need additional information or if something is not covered please let me know and I will update this post. |
