Is it free to call USA numbers when I’m in the USA?

[Rajan]

Hello,

Currently on the o2 150GB unlimited plus tariff which includes inclusive zone.

I travel to the US in two weeks and wanted to know if I’ll get charged over there for calling US number within the US?

@Rajan 

Yes they are included as long as they are not premium US numbers. 

[Rajan]

Hello,

what counts as a USA premium number?

[Rajan]

And do you mean yes as in I won’t get charged for calling a US number when I’m in the US?

@Rajan You will not be charged if your tariff includes US roaming.

@Rajan 

Anything 1-900 in the US or anything that is a internation freephone 00 800 can attract charges.. 

Yes if your tariff has the inclusive roaming or you pay the £6 per day calls in the US are included.

Hello,

Thank you for confirming. Could you also let me know if I’ll get charged for calling a UK number when that person in also in the US?

[Rajan]

Thank you for confirming.

Calling any standard UK or US numbers is included.

@Rajan If you want to avoid any confusion of where or who you can call, download WhatsApp. You can call, text, or video call anyone anywhere in the world who also has the app for free if you use a WiFi connection.
