Hi

 

I'm going to Lanzarote in a week.  I want to be able to use my phone for short calls and texts but I do not want to send or receive emails or surf the web!  If I turn data roaming off will I still be able to use my phone for calls and texts

And details of costs here http://www.o2.co.uk/international/o2-travel

 

In eu countries a short call is not advised due to the 50p call fee but that lasts up to 1 hour so less than 1p a minuite just ensure you end befor 60 mins

How long are you going for?

 

If your phone is unlocked, the local sim would be cheaper to use.

If you are a Pay Monthly customer, depending on which phone you have you can downlaod the TuGo app and use your monthly allowance for calls and texts to the UK over WiFi.

I DO NOT WORK FOR O2
