Think the OP has got an answer so perhaps I can hijack the thread a little?

What are the costs of receving UK calls (Both pay monthly and PAYG) when in Europe? Is the Isle of Man (In a telecoms sense) still treated as part of Europe?

I attend the TT races for 2 weeks each year, I was O2 PAYG initially and soon discovered I had no credit remaining after receiving calls. For many years I've been using a Manx PAYG SIM on the Island, a £20 top up gives the call time I require, receive calls for free and unlimited data usage valid for 31 days.

This year some of our party (O2 monthly and PAYG users) are first timers to the Island. Would like to know what the situation regarding charges is now?

Thanks

Yes, IOM is classed as Europe.
Rates for both Monthly and PAYG here http://international.o2.co.uk/internationaltariffs/travelling_abroad
I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
