Yes, you can change your plan if choosing from the same family of services. If you want to switch to a plan from a different family of services, you must also change your SIM card. It is important to consult your Account manager to verify the current contract and its permanence rules.
The monthly fee is charged within the billing cycle, from the first to the last day of the month. If the SIM Card is activated on a date other than the first day of the month, there will be a proportional charge corresponding to the days of the month it was actually active (pro-rata). The monthly boleto (payment slips) and invoices are sent via e-mail, according to the date and e-mail filled in the Adhesion Term.
The monthly charge is calculated on a monthly basis(from the first to the last day of the previous month).
ARQIA SIM Cards can be set to a share mode, that is, the total data allowance hired can be shared across all SIM Cards of the account. Share mode is not available for Pay As You Go plans.
To calculate the total data allowance for a shared account you must simply calculate the sum of all data allowance of all your SIM cards.
Example: You’ve hired 10 Standard M2M lines of 10 MB and 05 Standard M2M lines of 5MB. The total balance available to share across the lines will be 125 MB.
Note: For the data allowance to be shared, they must have the same technology. Example: Standard M2M lines can only be shared with other Standard M2M lines.
For Shared Standard M2M plans, there is an option of using extra MB.
If you have chosen this option, after reaching the data limit of the shared account, exceeding consumption is extra charged.
For the other ARQIA Connect 4.0 plans and broadband plans, data traffic is discontinued after reaching data limit.
Data limited is renewed within a monthly cycle, therefore it is not possible to use remaining balance from previous months.
ARQIA offers solutions for two segments of data use: M2M and Broadband
SMS are charged individually, that is, for each SMS sent. The calculation is done monthly.
A copy of the invoice or boleto (bank slip) can be requested through the Call Center or following the step-by-step link: http://arqia.com.br/2a-via-de-boleto/.
This service is free and the bank slip will be sent by email to the customer.
The period for reactivating your line is up to 24 working hours after the bank credit is identified. In case it is taking more than 24 working hours after the payment has been processed, please contact our Call Center: 0800 887 1599 / atendimento@arqia.com.br.
The request to change the due date can be made once a month through the Call Center. Call center: 0800 887 159
The boleto (bank slip) can be paid at any bank until the due date. After the invoice due date, you will need to contact our relationship center to request a new bank slip. Your company can pay the expired boleto (bank slip) only at the issuing bank. Call center: 0800 887 159.
Yes, ARQIA wants the loyalty of its customers by offering the best quality in its services and does not charge any fee for customers who wants to cancel their lines. The exceptions are for customers who receive additional benefits (discount on plans, discount on handsets) and have signed the Permanence Contract to the Personal Mobile service.
The use of data has a single price regardless of where you are in Brazil. There are no extra charges if you travel outside your home state.
The connection across SIM Card and the device can fail for several reasons. In order to make it easier to identify failures and correct them, we have listed below the main problems that can cause connection failure.
For SIM cards to be able to connect normally on a data network, they must be correctly configured with the name of ARQIA APN (Access Point Name or Access Point Name). When a SIM Card finds a network, but cannot send and receive data, the APN configuration is probably incorrect.
If you have questions about how to configure the APN, visit http://arqia.com.br/configuracao-de-apn/ or contact our Customer Service Team.
When the hired data limit is reached, data traffic is discontinued. From that moment on, the SIM Card will no longer be able to access the network until the allowance is renewed.
At ARQIA you can manage the consumption of your SIM Cards through the Consumption Platform. Thus, you will be able to measure whether the hired allowance is sufficient to meet your needs, or whether a plan upgrade may be needed.
If you need an upgrade, you can contact your Account Manager. You can pre-authorize an upgrade of your data package at the time of filling out the Term of Adhesion. In this case, to upgrade your data limit, just contact our Service Team.
If your SIM CARD is incorrectly positioned on the equipment, it is likely that you will not be able to connect to a network. Therefore, it is important to ensure that the metallic part of the SIM Card is correctly positioned in relation to the electronic component of your equipment.
If your SIM Card is damaged, you will not be able to connect to a network. SIM cards can be damaged due to handling, or can have its metal structures damaged, especially in case of SIM cards used in M2M applications, such as trackers, which are subjected to high temperatures.
If your SIM Card has been damaged, contact our Customer Service Team.
In equipment that is in motion, it is common for the SIM Card to lose communication with the antenna when traveling through shadow areas. Usually in these cases, after the equipment re-enters a covered area, traffic is automatically restored. However, when not, it is necessary to reset the lines.
At ARQIA you can perform the reset quickly and easily through the Management Platform. Just access “Linhas” in our menu and choose the Reset Lines option.
If the operator’s network signal is insufficient in the location where the device is located, it is likely that the connection will not be established or become unstable. In such cases, you can try to improve the signal reception by repositioning your device, preferably outdoors and away from metallic materials and appliances.
For locations where the coverage of the ARQIA Primary Network is insufficient, we offer an exclusive Technology called Connect 4.0. With it, your SIM Cards will be able to connect to a Secondary Network, that is, to other operators’ available network in your region.
Network signal loss occurs due to temporary unavailability of coverage.
If the SIM Card is in a location where you usually have network availability, contact the Call Center so that the problem can be investigated.

If your device has an operating system failure, it is likely that it will lose communication with the SIM Card.
In case your device crashes and loses the data connection, we recommend that the device be physically reset. This will cause the operating system to restart and scan the network again.
Connect 4.0 is an innovative and unique solution on the market exclusively for devices using M2M technology. It provides optimization of time and costs. With ARQIA’s exclusive technology, we offer your company greater network signal availability and better coverage throughout Brazil. You can also opt for plans with coverage in more than 30 countries around the world at no additional cost.
This plan has the best cost benefit and focuses on markets that need mobility and connection security. This plan also has OTA (over-the-air) technology that allows remote configurations on the lines. In addition to all the benefits, we offer two options of Connect 4.0 plans:
To be an ARQIA customer contact our Sales Call Center at 0800 887 1599, or through our sales chat on the website and speak with an online consultant. See the plan options available at: http://arqia.com.br/connect-4.0/
Yes, SMS service is available for all Connect 4.0 plans, both for national and International Roaming plans.
To migrate to this plan please request it to your Account Manager. It is also necessary to have your SIM card exchanged to a new one to migrate to any Connect 4.0 plan, including Dynamic Sharing. Contact us through our Call Center at 10542 or at 0800 887 1599.
Yes, with this plan it is possible to use the International Roaming service in many countries, as detailed in http://arqia.com.br/connect-4.0/. International Roaming is already included in the monthly fee of your plan.
The payment is made through boleto (payment slip). The invoice is sent via regular mail or via e-mail depending on the customer’s choice at the time of signing the Adhesion term.
