Questions about each
SK Telecom
How much does an SK Telecom roaming card cost?+
The entry price is KRW 9,000 and the daily rate is KRW 9,000, so a short trip stays easy to budget. Larger data cards are sold at fixed prices covering a set period. The site median price from is €5.
Is there an unlimited data option?+
Unlimited data is offered on the VIP card, though fair use applies. Usage stops at the daily allowance and then continues at a much lower maximum speed. The OnePass card instead carries a set data allowance per day.
How is the card obtained?+
Pickup and delivery is a physical card or a card delivered by SMS or MMS, so it can reach you before you travel. A physical SIM is what arrives, so a handset with a free SIM slot is needed.
What support can I get?+
Support runs on phone and help centre, which means a help centre and phone rather than live chat or community. Anyone relying on quick answers away from a handset should keep another route in mind.
