## Video calls home

Video calls with family use the most data over the holiday: our data planner counts about 1.5 GB a day for video, so a week of daily calls fits in 10 GB. A Day Pass costs more for the week but starts fresh every day, so a long call never runs the data out.

> One eSIM per phone: buy for the whole family in [one payment](/guides/family-esim-one-payment).
