Other benefits may include discounted eSIM data plans (for example, up to 50% off standard retail pricing) and eligibility for a promotional reward (such as a free refill) after a defined period of continuous participation. The specific benefits available to you will be those displayed on the website at the time of enrolment and may vary by country or promotion.

If you think you may have purchased the wrong refill, please contact our Customer Service team for assistance.
If your first refill is unsuccessful, the full amount paid, including any processing fees, will be automatically refunded to you within approximately 30 minutes, or at the latest within five (5) business days. For refills after your first one, please contact Customer Service for prompt assistance.
If you have not received your refill and have not received an automatic refund, this usually means that our third-party provider has confirmed delivery. In this case, please contact our Customer Service team. We will carry out the necessary checks and issue a refund if appropriate.
Refund requests are typically processed within 48 hours of receipt. However, the time it takes for the funds to appear in your account may vary depending on your payment provider or bank, which is outside of our control.
With your first refill, the crediting and activation process is automatic to ensure a smooth purchase experience. For refills after your first purchase (including Auto Refills and Premium plan refills), you may be required to manually activate the refill from your account. If a refill remains unactivated within three (3) months from the date it was issued, you are entitled to request a full refund, including any applicable processing fees. After this period, you may still contact Customer Service to request an extension of the activation period for a further three (3) months.
If you purchased a refill by mistake, we may be able to issue a refund only if the refill has not been activated.
To request a refund, please contact our Customer Service team. We will check the status of the refill and confirm whether a refund is possible.
Refunds are not available where the refill credit has already been used, in whole or in part, or where it was sent to an incorrect cell number due to inaccurate information provided by the user at the time of purchase.
Where applicable under the mandatory consumer protection laws of your country of residence, you may have the right to withdraw from the Contract within 14 days from the date of purchase without giving any reason.
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must send us an explicit statement of your decision by email to help@surestreamdigital.com or by contacting our Customer Service.
Where the performance of the service has begun at your express request, your right of withdrawal may no longer apply once the service has been fully performed, or otherwise as provided by the applicable consumer protection laws.
If you validly exercise your right of withdrawal, we will refund the relevant amount using the same payment method used for the original transaction, unless otherwise agreed.
For customers purchasing from Italy, these rights are governed by the Italian Consumer Code (Legislative Decree No. 206/2005, as amended), including the exceptions to the right of withdrawal set out in Article 59.
