Change in tariff whilst abroad

[Zuzka]

Hello

I have an option to upgrate my tariff and considering that there is noone in O2 I can really get in touch I'd like to see if anyone can help.

I "fled" the UK and currently in Slovakia (EU country) and I see that I have an upgrade options for my sim that I could potentioanlly use.

1) Is it safe to upgrade now my tarffif (of course no sim replacement) as I will stay here for as long as corona lasts. (I'm estimating till September). I don't want to upgrade and my phone will suddenly stop working for half a year. So I'm pretty worried about taking that action

2) In terms of the tariffs. The way I understand it - is that when they say e.g. 100 GBP data tariff for 20 GBP - really means 20 GBP + a VAT? so it will be more than that? e.g. 20 + 4 VAT = £24 GBP 

- is that the correct logic?

3) Also, when they say Ends 13th May - that does mean that the offer ends, correct? Not that the e.g. 100 GB data allowance ends. 

Many thanks, I'm just trying to cover myself on all fronts before I make any next step.

Many thanks for your help.

Best

Zuzana

So have I but we weren't in the middle of a pandemic with systems failing.

That's fine. You were in the UK.

Anyway as I am outvoted and it's entirely up to @Zuzka I will bow out.

The offer ends in May so I would do it now.

Can't see that it matters where the phone is as it changes on the system..

[jonsie]

That's what I reckoned after I thought about it some more

[MI5]

I agree

and on and on and on....

It's good to talk.

Isn't that another network altogether?
