O2/Volt unlimited EU roaming?

Gc2025 — Sun, 25 May 2025 18:23:58 GMT

Last year, I was on a 450gb (150gb o2 + 150gb volt + 150gb extra data) data plan. I was on holiday in Ireland for a week but didn't get charged for roaming. I had the wife and kids tablets tethering to my data, by the end of the week I had used 97gb and wasn't charged anything.

I just upgraded to an unlimited plus package yesterday. I don't know if not getting charged was a glitch, or part of the Volt benefits. Travelling to Spain in July and hoping I can avail of the same.

Can anyone confirm if Volt allows unlimited roaming in EU or is it capped at ?

Capped at 25gb before charges.

You were lucky before.

Fair point. I was in bundoran, can't recall which one, but definitely an Irish network and not o2 uk.

Was weird... I had fast 5G the whole time. Used up all my luck eh lol. Kids and wife will be disappointed come July! lol

Thanks all
