The following terms and conditions of the Tesco Mobile Prepay 15 offer ("Offer") are in addition to and form part of the
General Terms and Conditions of the Tesco Mobile Services which are available at our terms and conditions page and the
standard Prepay Terms and Conditions available here. In the event of any conflict the specific terms and conditions
below shall prevail.
Note that capitalised words have special meanings - see the "Definitions" section at the end of these terms.
The Offer of Unlimited* calls to any network, Unlimited* Tesco Mobile to Tesco Mobile texts, 15GB data and €15 plan
credit is available to all new and existing Tesco Mobile Prepay customers that top up by a minimum of €15 in one go
every 28 days from 23rd March 2023 ("Prepay 15").
* Fair usage applies to Unlimited services - i.e., per 28-day period, up to 10,000 call minutes to landlines and mobile
phones in the Republic of Ireland and while roaming in the EU, 3,000 Tesco Mobile to Tesco Mobile texts, 15GB of data to
use in the Republic of Ireland of which up to 15GB can be used while roaming in the EU. Once you exceed the fair use
limits, out of bundle rates apply. Offer excludes roaming outside of the EU, international calls, premium rate and other
non-geographic usage (other than calls to 1850, 1890, 0818 and 076 from 1 December 2019).
To avail of the Offer, existing Tesco Mobile Prepay customers have to switch to this plan. For new customers that have
signed up to this Prepay Plan since the 23rd March 2023, you must top up by a minimum of €15 in one go every 28 days and
maintain a positive credit balance to continue to receive the Offer. Excludes any promotional top up credit received in
that 28-day period – as promotional or plan credit has a 28-day expiry period. When you top up by €15 in one
transaction, a €15 charge will be debited from your credit and the Offer will activate. This €15 charge will apply each
time you top up by €15 in one transaction. Following the activation, Tesco Mobile will apply €15 Plan credit to your
account to spend on out of bundle services. There is no
carryover of Offer benefits allowance following any 28-day period. This includes the €15 Plan credit which has a 28-day
expiry. If you top up again before the end of the initial 28-day term by €15, then a new 28-day term starts, and the
Offer allowances are re-set. This means you will lose any remaining allowances from the initial top-up as there is no
carry over of allowances. If you need to top up again during your initial 28-day term, it is recommended that you top up
by less than the minimum amount if you want to retain the Offer benefits i.e., €5, €10 this credit will be added to your
main account credit (which is separate to the promotional plan credit applied by Tesco Mobile). If you fail to complete
the minimum top up before the end of a 28-day term, then you will lose the Offer benefits allowance and will be charged
the Standard Rates for calls & texts and data. However, topping up by the required €15 in one go will again reactivate
the Offer and give you 28 days of benefits.
Customers are eligible for the Offer so long as they remain a Tesco Mobile Prepay 15 customer and top up by a minimum of
€15 for each 28day benefit allowance. For the avoidance of doubt, customers who leave Tesco Mobile will no longer be
eligible for the Offer and will lose any unused benefit allowances or credit provided to customers by Tesco Mobile,
including but not limited to pre-installed credit, porting credit, promotional credit and goodwill credit. A prepay
customer is entitled to a refund of any remaining top-up credit paid for by them when they switch to another operator
and claim that refund within 3 months of switching. If you believe that you eligible for a prepaid credit refund, please
contact 1903.
Top Up vouchers must be added to your account within 24 months of purchase or will expire. Retailers may apply a charge
for purchasing Top Up vouchers which is outside our control.
There is a maximum credit ceiling of €120 for top ups. We will endeavour to alert you if nearing this limit to request
that you refrain from topping up for a period so that your credit can be used and your balance falls below the limit.
Usage will be charged at Standard Rates. In the event that your credit balance reaches this limit, top up facilities
will be restricted, and your credit will be used as detailed above. Your next Top Up of €15 in a 28-day period will
trigger the Offer benefits, subject to the cap not being reached.
The Offer applies to all standard Republic of Ireland mobile and landline calls and data usage in Ireland. In addition,
you can use your off-net voice, text and / or data bundle allowances while roaming in the EU in the same way as you
would use at home i.e. Roam Like At Home (‘RLAH’), however usage may be subject to a Fair Usage Policy (‘FUP’) and proof
of stable links. EU roaming is designed for customers based in the Republic of Ireland who wish to temporarily use their
phone while travelling within EU countries. It is not meant for customers living in another EU country. If Tesco Mobile
observes excessive roaming usage and presence each month and this usage prevails over a 4-month period (observed
cumulatively), Tesco Mobile may contact you to request that you to alter your usage pattern. Tesco Mobile reserves the
right to request proof of residency in order to enable you to RLAH i.e. use your Plan / Service while roaming
periodically in the EU. Proof of residency may be established through registration with the my.tescomobile.ie portal or
Tesco Clubcard or by providing a valid document confirming your place of residence (see here for a complete list of
acceptable proofs). The RLAH FUP: the Data FUP allowance will be calculated in accordance with the Commission’s
Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/2286 and you will be informed of this once you start to roam. Once connected to the
Tesco Mobile Service you will receive a ‘Welcome’ message which will detail important information to help get you
started including providing you with a direct link to where comprehensive information is clearly published on our
website regarding roaming services, including information about Tesco Mobiles RLAH service, the FUP and alerts and the
Roaming Data cap – see here. Please refer to the General Terms and Conditions which detail the Roaming Services terms
including RLAH terms.

section). All calls other than domestic calls – e.g. non-geographic numbers (other than calls to 1850, 1890, 0818 and
076 from 1 December 2019) will be charged from your top up balance.
