O2 Travel

[Anonymous]

Hello!

I am just wondering if anyone can help me! I know that with O2 Travel you can get discounted rates for calls etc in European countries but I'm off to New Zealand in April and I was wondering if there are similar options if you're in a country outside of Europe? Thanks in advance!

Nothing for outside the eu

adamtemp is spot on.

Only option is if on pay monthly and have a compatible phone you could use tugo when in wifi range to call back to the uk just using your normal included mins.

Assuming you are pay monthly

Or if Your phone is unlocked use a local SIM card while your there.

If it's not unlocked then it's free to unlock for contract customers or £15 to payg. T&C apply.

Wifi and TuGo is the way to go or a local sim in an unlocked phone with which you can also use your allowance incorporating TuGo

If you are able to connect to wifi then you could use alternative methods of communication such as the whatsapp, viber, skype, bbm apps.  Using these apps will be free of charge if you use wifi and they enable you to text, instant message, call or have video chats. Please note that not all apps are available for all phones but if you have a compatible phone then I recommend downloading it prior to travelling.

The benefit of TuGo is that the party you're calling doesn't need to have it installed.

It's not really an "option" though - It's just standard International rates.....
