Our verdict
Entel Peru sells contract and prepaid plans from its own network in a single market, PE, with next generation mobile access and a credit check on applications. It suits Peru-based readers who want high data allowances, portability and a local operator, and who can commit to a plan term of 12 months.

Pros and cons
Pros
- Entel Peru sells as a network, so the plan comes from the operator that runs the service.
- The plan list is generous with data, with the unlimited tier carrying unlimited data at PEN 69.90 a month.
- Billing is flexible under contract and prepaid, covering contract lines and prepaid lines from the same operator.
- Support is offered on email, chat and phone, including phone and chat alongside email and a help centre.
- Next generation mobile access is offered on the network rather than sold as a paid add on.
Cons
- A credit check is required, so an applicant with a short credit record may be refused a line.
- EU roaming runs on fair use terms, fair use, so sustained data use abroad is capped rather than included.
- Plans run for 12 months, a longer commitment than the rolling term listed by yesss! under contract, rolling and prepaid.
- Service covers PE only, so it is not an option for anyone who wants a provider active in several markets.
Who it suits
- People in Peru who want a plan from the network that operates the service rather than a reseller.
- Heavy data users who want a level allowance, with the unlimited tier at PEN 69.90 a month.
- Applicants with a healthy credit record who are happy to commit to 12 months of plan term.
Who should look elsewhere
- Readers chasing the lowest entry price, since Lonestar Cell MTN lists from $0.20.
- Anyone wanting a rolling monthly term instead of a plan lasting 12 months: yesss! bills on contract, rolling and prepaid.
- Readers who want a prepaid supplier to weigh against a network, since GETESA lists prepaid and contract billing alongside Entel Peru's next generation access.
Core features
Entel Peru's network carries next generation mobile access, so recent handsets run on the newest generation of mobile data rather than being limited to older services. The other listed feature sits on the application side: a credit check is required, which means credit history is weighed before a line is approved. That is worth knowing before applying for a new number, a ported number or an upgrade, because an application can be decided on that check rather than on coverage alone.
Plans and prices
Entry sits at PEN 29.90 a month on the entry plan, which opens with the larger data allowance and then drops to a smaller monthly allowance. The middle plan follows the same pattern a tier up, for readers who want more data from the start. The unlimited plan runs at PEN 69.90 a month and holds its allowance for the whole term instead of stepping down. Portability comes as standard on the listed plans, so a number can be brought in or moved out. Entry price and renewal price are the same monthly figure here: what changes over the term is the data allowance, not the fee, so the number to weigh at renewal is the allowance rather than the amount.
The company behind it
The contracting party is Entel Peru S.A., the legal entity named in the terms and conditions, so it is the company you deal with for billing, allowances and the plan term. Support is offered on email, chat and phone: phone and chat for anything that needs a person, email and a help centre for questions that can be written down and answered later. Because plans, support and the network itself sit with the same operator, a question about coverage, an outage or a bill goes to the same company that carries the line.

Frequently asked questions
What does the cheapest Entel Peru plan cost?+
The entry price is PEN 29.90 a month on the entry plan, which carries the larger data allowance for the first months of the plan and steps down to a smaller allowance afterwards. Portability is included on the listed plans, so a number can be brought in from another network or moved out later.
Is there an unlimited data plan, and what does it cost?+
Yes. The unlimited data plan costs PEN 69.90 a month and holds that allowance for the whole term. The two lower tiers follow a different pattern, opening with a larger data allowance and dropping to a smaller one later in the term, so the unlimited plan is the one that stays level.
Do I need a credit check to sign up?+
A credit check is required, so credit history is weighed before a line is approved and an applicant with a short record may be refused. That matches the wider market rather than standing out against it: networks in the mobile comparison require a check at 87.1%, so the requirement is ordinary for this kind of seller.
Who is the seller, and can I be prepaid or on contract?+
Entel Peru sells as a network, so the operator issuing the plan is the one running the service in Peru. Lines can be set up on contract and prepaid, which covers a contract line or a prepaid line, or both, from the same company.
How long is the plan term?+
Plans run for 12 months, so the line is committed for a full term rather than month to month. A reader who expects to switch operator quickly should read the terms first, since a rolling option would suit that pattern better, and yesss! lists rolling billing under contract, rolling and prepaid.
What happens to my data when I travel?+
Roaming follows fair use terms, fair use, so light travel use is handled while sustained data use abroad is treated differently. For anyone who streams or works from another country for long stretches, those fair use terms are the detail to check first, because the home allowance is what the plan is selling.
How can I reach customer support?+
Help is offered on email, chat and phone, which covers phone and chat for questions that need a person, plus email and a help centre for anything that can be written down and answered later. Support, billing and the plan itself all sit with the same operator.
Who am I actually contracting with?+
The contract is with Entel Peru S.A., the legal entity named in the terms and conditions. That company is responsible for billing, data allowances and the plan term of 12 months, so a query or a dispute about the service starts with it rather than with a reseller acting for someone else.
