I’m going to China very shortly for the first time, my data allowance is only 250mb!

I have purchased a bolt on for 500mb just in case I need it.

I have checked my status on my phone and it is still reading 250mb!

Should this now be reading 750mb of data available?

regards

You can't use your data in China, so it's not apllicable to your travel, although it should update after 24 hours.

Data use in china is £7.20 per mb, so I'd advise you to stay on wifi at all times with mobile data off completely.

I wasn't aware you couldn't use your data in China?

Travel inclusive tariffs cover the US if you have it otherwise it's £4.99 a day travel bolt on for unlimited slow data but still not your own allowances.
