How long is my Ubigi preloaded data plan valid if I do not scan the QR code I received ?

The preloaded data plan you purchased must be activated within 6 months after your purchase. This means you can buy your Ubigi eSIM profile now and install it later, just make sure to scan the QR code and activate it within 6 months.

Problems Reading QR Code on E-mail
I purchased this eSIM to test out my new Netgear Nighthawk M7 hotspot. The purchasing experience went well and was straight forward. When I scanned to QR code on your e-mail, I kept on getting an error message on the Netgear App that read: "eSIM setup failed. Something went wrong while setting up the eSIM on your hotspot Error Code: 1." I then proceeded to create my Ubigi account. Once in the account, there was confirmation of my purchase with a QR code. When I scanned this other QR code, it processed successfully. The rest of the process went smoothly and I experienced no problems with the service. Based on what happened, it seems to me this Error Code 1 was a generic provisioning failure rather than a problem with the hotspot itself. In other words, the hotspot was able to read the QR code and contact the provisioning server, but the server could not complete the download of the eSIM profile for whatever reason. Other than this I liked your product and will use it again. I plan on using Ubigi as I travel to Italy later this year.
