Questions about each
Entel Chile
How many countries does Entel Chile cover?+
Coverage runs to 56 countries and territories, and the footprint is regional rather than global. The plan is shaped for trips that stay inside that region rather than a round-the-world itinerary. For comparison, Zwitchy covers 200 countries and territories.
Is the data unlimited?+
Unlimited data is not offered. The features the plan advertises are hotspot sharing and carrier-plan roaming hotspot and carrier plan, and each bag runs for a fixed period from purchase and expires whether or not the data is used. Heavy streaming therefore has to fit inside that window.
