so I'm on pay monthly If I go to europe £1.99 per day for data access even if I use things like whatsapp etc ?
and 50p/call all this works out to be expencive compare to the EU controlled standard rate. no one is going to be speaking for hours now days. all calles will be 1 min or less which is 4.8p/min
is this the way o2 get around EU restrictionson the price they can charge ?
If I use TVgo app can we just around just charged £1.99 per day ?

Yes they are the current charges from O2.
Do you mean Tugo ?
This is suggested to use abroad yes on Wifi.
Or if planned correctly and charges looked at some do use a local SIM card in their phone.
Edit : spelling.

Hi @Anonymous
I have just come back from Spain and actually was amazed at how many apps like whatsapp were free IF used over Wifi...
The 50p connection fee is very reasonable also as you then get the remaining 59 minutes free of charge.
I had a system whereby I rang home at a certain time of the day ONCE only...and could chat away for 59 minutes. If you make numerous short calls then it does work out more expensive.
I never turned on data roaming at all during my time away...just used Wifi always

If you are using contacts in your phone book then surely you wont be calling the wrong number?
If you are receiving a call and you don't recognise the number then I suggest you don't answer..I certainly wouldn't.
As I said previously the 50p connection fee is extremely reasonable if used properly.:smileyhappy:

Using Tugo, even on wifi will still take mins out of your UK allowance.

Awesome answer @Cleoriff
Kudo given.
Thanks BoB.. I was actually surprised at how easy it was to answer that. My time spent going abroad and listening to folk on here shows that I AM learning..
Of course the daughter in law was the one using all the apps to stay in touch with her family....even she was surprised at the amount she could use in Spain free of charge...over WiFi
