Prepaid Data SIM Card Wiki
Advertisement

General info

In Poland four network providers are operating:

  • Plus (aka Polkomtel)
  • Play
  • T-Mobile (formerly ERA)
  • Orange (formerly IDEA)

GSM up to EDGE is on 900 and 1800 MHz like all over Europe and covers all of the country. 3G/UMTS is on 900 and 2100 MHz up to DC-HSPA+ speed available in most of the country. 4G/LTE has been rolled out on 800, 1800, 2100 and 2600 MHz frequency and is generally free of charge for prepaid.

Also, more and more MVNOs are arriving on the scene competing with four major operators and reselling their networks.

SIM cards can be bought at many places: shops, kiosk, newsagents, petrol stations, tobacconists or the stores of the network operators.

Managing your account online may require Polish language skills, as no English homepage is available. You can try Google Translate for navigating their websites. Nevertheless, the bonus system you have on a Polish SIM can be quite confusing to foreigners.

Currently you can get mini, micro and nano SIMs. Although a nano SIM may be harder to get (but can be cut).

Tethering and VoIP are available without any additional cost on all operators.

Registration plans

Up to now you can buy a prepaid SIM card in Poland without registration. Generally, a photo ID for purchase, but no registration of any kind is required. This about to change in 2016: The new anti-terrorism act aims to increase security of the public against terrorist attacks. On the other hand, it increases surveillance of citizens, who moreover will pay for the changes in the form of higher prices.

If the government adopts the act in line with the plan, the new act could block about 30 million prepaid SIMs in Poland and the first blocking could take place as early as the end of 2016. Under the proposed legislation, it would not be possible to buy a mobile starter set without giving a reason, and existing clients will have half a year to provide data to operators, or have their numbers blocked. It's not yet clear what will happen to the sale of coupons and starter packs in kiosks and petrol stations. Clients will have to provide a special reason for buying a phone and not every client will be willing to give one, and it is not certain that the operator will get reliable information. Nor is it clear, how to deal with underage customers.

Plus (aka Polkomtel)

Logo plus

The SIM card comes with a bilingual Polish/English leaflet. Managing your account online would require Polish language skills, as no English homepage is available. But since registration is not necessary, you can cope without.

Plus has a very good coverage throughout the country on 2G and 3G while their 4G/LTE network is the most advanced nationwide right now: Plus Coverage Map  and already covers 2/3 of the population. 4G/LTE is available on data prepaid cards with speeds up to 150 Mbps. Plus has still the highest rates in the country.

Voice and data SIM card

They still their Więcej (= more) tariff lines for voice and data up to 3G with these different starter packs:

  • Więcej do wszystkich (= more of everything): 5 PLN - default data rate 0.29 PLN/100 KB
  • Więcej internetu i SMS-ów (= more internet and SMS): 5 PLN - default data rate 0.05 PLN/100 KB.
  • Więcej w Plusie (more of Plus): 5 PLN - default rate rate: 0.29 PLN/100KB

All three SIM cards don't include initial data. The need to be activated by code. *121*11*03# gives you 300 MB in 30 days for free. But take care, this bundle will auto-renew and cost 7 PLN from the second month. It can be stopped by *121*00*03#. On the Więcej internetu i SMS-ów you can add another 200 MB for 1 PLN by *136*11*03# just once. For more data you can add these packages:

Data for Recurrent bundle Once-off bundle
30 days Price Activation Deactivation Price Activation
300 MB 5 PLN *136*11*10# *136*00*10# 3 PLN *121*11*11#
500 MB 7 PLN *136*11*11# *136*00*11# 5 PLN *121*11*12#
1 GB 10 PLN *136*11*12# *136*00*12# 7 PLN *121*11*13#

Packages can also be activated and deactivated on your personal account (in Polish). Check data balance by *136#. You can only activate one package per month. Overuse is at default rate.

Data-only SIM card

Their old white and green starter packs called "Startery Plus Nowy Internet na Kartę" are slowly phased out, but you can still get them at many resellers:

  • 9 PLN - 300 MB included, SIM is valid for 10 days, top up to prolong.
  • 15 PLN - 1 GB included, SIM is valid for 20 days, top up to prolong

If 4G/LTE is not activated automatically, type *101*11*23#.

They are now replaced by the new all-red "JA Internet na Kartę" packages on 4G/LTE too:

  • 5 PLN: 500 MB data included valid for 7 days, entitled to 5 times top-up bonus of 1 GB
  • 15 PLN: 3 GB data included valid for 14 days, entitled to 12 times top-up bonus of 1 GB

The new red SIM cards are misleadingly advertised as "5 GB" or "15 GB". This is only true if you add the bonuses when you top up for PLN 20 or more (see below).

Data feature packs

Price Regular Data Bonus Data Validity
10 PLN 1 GB 7 days
20 PLN 3 GB + 1 GB 14 days
30 PLN 5 GB + 1 GB 30 days
50 PLN 11 GB + 1 GB 60 days
100 PLN 35 GB + 1 GB 120 days
150 PLN 35 GB + 1 GB 365 days

These top ups apply to the old green Startery Plus Nowy Internet na Kartę as well as the new red JA Internet na Kartę plans. Bonus data only applies to the new packages 5 or 12 times.

To purchase a package, log on at www.online.plus.pl with you 9-digit phone number and the last (!) four digits of your PUK or use USSD code *123# on your phone. Check balance by code *121#. Overuse is charged at a very low 0.01 PLN per 300 KB.

On the new packages by USSD code *121*11*03# the "night offer" can be activated. It gives you 200 GB high speed traffic in 30 days only in the night hours from 1:00am to 7:00am local time for 10 PLN. To stop auto-renewal, type *121*00*03#. The night offer on the old packages is up to 50 GB only for 10 PLN by *121*11*02#.

Play

PLAY LOGO nowe

Play, owned by P4, is the smallest of the 4 network operators with the most aggressive pricing. By the end of 2013 it had covered 80% of the population with 3G/UMTS on 900 and 2100 MHz which it misleadingly still calls "4G". But real 4G on 800 and 1800 MHz LTE is available for 78% of the population in 2015: Play Coverage Map (go to Internet. There it shows "4G/LTE" which is UMTS and LTE combined! The bright purple area is 3G/HSPA+, only the dark purple 4G/LTE.)

Play has a limited number of its own network masts in the country covering only the main cities. But it is able to roam for free on all other Polish 2G/3G networks (there is no access to LTE of other networks) - as a result, almost every network mast (for any network) is actually allowing Play customers to connect for free - both for GSM and for data. (Note: only the voice+data packages can roam on non-Play towers, data-only packages do not roam).

Their SIM card can be bought at kiosks, petrol stations and other points of sale: Play Store Locator.

Play has one of the most confusing SIM card portfolios in Europe. They have different tariff lines with different add-ons and default rates. Generally, all tariff lines can be switched, but not to/from the cheapest rate called Play Internet na Kartę. http://www.play.pl/en contains an English description of some prepaid plans as well as instructions for choosing a plan, but lacks essential infos about the "Internet na karte" offer or how to terminate a package, which is only available in Polish or here.

Play na Kartę

Play na Kartę is their standard prepaid product line sold for 5 PLN in a starter pack. You can change from any tariff to this line by typing *163*6#. Card is valid for 10 days. Default data is high PLN 1.20 / MB.

Top-ups are from 5 PLN valid for 5 days to 100 PLN valid for 150 days. They don't include bonus data. You need to add a data package (see below).

Play na Kartę Lubię to!

This different product line can be used with same starter. This tariff must be activated/changed by *163*7# and card is active for 10 days. Default internet is free, unlimited, but capped at slow 32 kbps. To prolong, you have to top up which gives you bonus internet. For every top up:

  • of up to 9 PLN, you get 50 MB bonus and 5 days validity
  • of up to 24 PLN, you get 200 MB bonus and 10 days validity
  • of up to 49 PLN, you get 500 MB bonus and 30 days validity
  • of up to 99 PLN, you get 1.5 GB bonus and 100 days validity
  • of 100 PLN or more, you get 3.5 GB bonus and 150 days vaildity

For more data you need to add a package.

FORMUŁA Play na Kartę

FORMUŁA is another prepaid line. You can change any starter pack for 5 PLN to this tariff line by typing *163*10#. FORMUŁA 3x1 includes 1 GB for 30 days for 14 PLN. Default rate outside is 0.20 PLN per MB.

As a promotion, you can activate FORMUŁA Play na Kartę by code *111*400*1# and test it for a week. After 7 days it automatically renews as a regular package. To stop, you need to type before the 7 days are over *111*402*2#.

Data feature packages

These monthly data packs work with Play na Kartę, Play na Kartę Lubię to! and FORMUŁA Play na Kartę:

  • 600 MB: 5 PLN - activation: *111*541*1#
  • 2 GB: 9 PLN - activation: *111*542*1#
  • 6 GB: 20 PLN - activation: *111*543*1#

All packages auto-renew. To stop, type code and replace 1 by 2 at last digit.

Play Internet na Kartę:

Their product line Play Internet na Kartę has the cheapest data at slightly higher voice and text rates. Default data rate stays at very low 0.02 PLN per MB. This prepaid line cannot be changed with others. Users of Play Internet na Kartę have access to Play's own network only - unlike to the other tariffs, there is no national roaming available on this tariff.

It comes in three different starter packs with an allowance for the start and the 12 following months. That's why it might be not so convenient for travellers:

  • 9 PLN: with 1 GB for a start and 250 MB bonus every month for 12 months (= 3 GB). Default data rate is 0.02 PLN per MB.
  • 19 PLN: with 3 GB for a start and 500 MB bonus every month for 12 months (= 6 GB).
  • 50 PLN: with 1 GB released every month for 12 months (= 12 GB in total)

To add more data, you need to top up these amounts which translates into data:

Recharge Data Validity
5 PLN 250 MB 7 days
10 PLN 500 MB 7 days
20 PLN 2 GB 14 days
30 PLN 6 GB 30 days
50 PLN 12 GB 60 days
75 PLN 20 GB 90 days
100 PLN 30 GB 120 days
125 PLN 40 GB 150 days

Additionally so-called "unlimited internet packages" can be booked on Play Internet na Kartę tariff line only:

  • "unlimited" internet for 30 days: PLN 45, activation: *111*645*1#
  • "unlimited" internet for weekends (Sat/Sun): PLN 10, activation: *111*641*1#

All these "unlimited" add-ons auto-renew and must be stopped by replacing 1 by 2 as last digit in the code. "Unlimited" is really almost unlimited as they only throttle using more than 100 GB.

Red Bull Mobile

RedBull mobile

Red Bull Mobile is a joint venture between P4/Play and Red Bull energy drink. It's not a MVNO as it belongs to Play and sold at their stores as a different brand aimed at the urban youth. It uses the network of Play in 2G, 3G and 4G/LTE: Play Coverage Map

Availabilty

SIM starter pack is sold at Play stores (Play Store Locator) and often given away for free e.g. at sports events. They offer free SIMs in promotions, but there are generally two starter packs - for 5 and 9 PLN. You can change tariffs by calling *163#. 4G/LTE is available free of charge.

On the old SIM cards LTE has to be activated every 30 days by typing *111*480*1# (this is not necessary on the new SIM cards). The 5 PLN starter has 25 MB preloaded, the 9 PLN starter 250 MB for a start.

Data feature packages

You can add these monthly data packages to BOTH starter packs:

  • 700 MB: PLN 5, activation: *111*550*1#
  • 3 GB: PLN 9, activation: *111*551*1#
  • 7 GB: PLN 20, activation: *111*552*1#

All packages auto-renew if not stopped by code. Stop by replacing 1 by 2 at last digit in code. When data volume is used up, speed will be throttled to 32 kbps.

The 5 PLN starter pack, offers "unlimited" internet, calls and texts too. This is not for the 9 PLN pack:

  • "unlimited" for one day - send the code from a Red Bull can to 666 666 666 (free)
  • "unlimited" for three days: 3 PLN - activation: *111*614*1#
  • "unlimited" for seven days: 7 PLN - activation: *111*615*1#

"Unlimited" has a FUP of 200 MB for one day, 300 MB for three days and 700 MB for a week in high speed. Beyond quota, data is almost shut off at 8 kbps! Packages auto-renew. Stop by replacing 1 by 2 in code.

Free 4G/LTE option

There are basically two types of tariffs in Red Bull Mobile: the newer one contains "Energy" in its name, the older one does not. Generally 5 PLN starters are the new one and the 9 PLN are the old. You can check your tariff by calling *111*49*1#. Only if you have the older one (e.g. it shows "RBM na Karte") you can activate free 200 GB of data that can be used on Play's own 4G/LTE network ONLY and all 2G/3G transfer is charged otherwise. To activate this offer, you'll need to have 30 PLN credit on your card that won't be used for the activation fee, as it is free. It just has to be there. To activate, call *111*480*1#. The 200 GB for 30 days completely is given out for free. Unless you have another regular data pack purchased before, a speed limit of only 32 kbps will apply and you won't be able to use the free 200 GB. In this situation you can buy any data package to unlock the speed.
