Hi! Thanks in advance for any help

My situation: my mother is going to visit your beautiful country. Since Switzerland is outside the EU, roaming from our Spanish plan isn’t really an option.

She’ll be staying in a place with no Wi-Fi, no internet, basically no connectivity at all. So she needs mobile data and ideally a way to call family (Europe). The phone has no E-SIM option

I’ve been looking into options and it seems like prepaid with Swisscom is one of the main ones. But honestly… it feels quite expensive:~50 CHF just for data (5 GB + activation)And if you add international calls, it’s another ~20 CHF/month

Sure, she could use WhatsApp for calls, but still…

So my question is:
Are there better/cheaper alternatives I might be missing?
Or is prepaid (Swisscom / Salt / Sunrise) basically the way to go in Switzerland?

Thanks a lot for any advice!

Since I'm on my phone, I copied the version in the wrong language, sorry
