Coverage – AnPost Mobile

AnPost Mobile is a Vodafone Ireland MVNO, meaning AnPost Mobile uses the Vodafone Ireland network and does not have its own mobile infrastructure.

To find out what to expect in terms of coverage with AnPost Mobile, jump to the Vodafone Ireland Coverage section in my Ireland SIM card buying guide.

Tesco Mobile customers do not have access to Vodafone Ireland's 5G NR network.

SIM Card Price – AnPost Mobile

You can buy an AnPost Mobile SIM card for 15 EUR (together with the €15 Unlimited Prepay Plan – 25 GB, 3000 minutes & 3000 SMS) in AnPost post offices

Surprisingly, travel eSIMs can be cheaper than an Irish SIM card or eSIM in specific scenarios.

Moreover, Europe-wide and global eSIM options are also available at competitive prices (without having to deal with expensive international roaming rates).

In this Ireland SIM card buying guide (the one you are reading), I will stick to the local SIM cards and eSIM, but you can read my Ireland eSIM buying guide for more information about travel eSIMs covering the country.

But here is a quick overview already + applicable discount codes if you are interested in purchasing a travel eSIM for Ireland:

• Airalo: Fáilte (Ireland only), Eurolink (39 countries in Europe) & Discover+ (130 countries worldwide + up to 200 worldwide minutes & 200 worldwide SMS)
• Alosim: Ireland & Europe (32 countries)
• Holafly: Ireland & Europe (32 countries) – all variants in both options include unlimited data + up to 120 Europe-wide calls
• Nomad: Ireland, Europe (30 or 35 countries, depending on the variant) & Global (109 or 139 countries, depending on the variant)

Here are some discount codes to sweeten the deal:

• Airalo: APR15 for 15% off (if you have never bought an Airalo eSIM before). Otherwise, APR10 for 10% off (for existing users) – only the first 3000 users can redeem either discount code)
• Alosim: PTW for 5% off (as many times as you wish for as many eSIMs as you want)
• Holafly: PHONETRAVELWIZ for 5% off (as many times as you wish for as many eSIMs as you want)
