Monthly tariff when I'm abroad

[RodgerDodger]

Hi there folks

The question is what happens to my monthly allowance eg. free text, free mins and data allowance when I travel abroad?

I think I know what the answer maybe but I would like to find out if texting and phoning from abroad can still be used out of my allowance, but clearly at a different charge rate.

Thanks in advance

You won't use any of your inclusive allowance

I think I was hoping that I could use up some of my monthly allowance rather having it just sitting there.

Unfortunately not mate I'm afraid sorry if that wasn't the outcome you were looking for

If you use Tugo over wifi it will use your allowance and calls will be free whilst you have minutes remaining.

I'm currently using TuGo overseas with all calls and texts coming out of my allowance. Just need to make sure mobile data is off and you have wifi.

So if you use tugo and wifi and have unlimited uk minutes I take it in effect you have unlimited international minutes?

Yes to UK numbers both landline and mobile.

Thanks Jonsie find it somewhat hard to believe O2 want to miss out on their stupidly high roaming costs but good for us

It's the one advantage monthly customers have over P&G. Maybe they will find some other way of penalising us
