Hi @Anonymous

Your allowances are for Uk use only.

I normally suggest having your phone unlocked to all networks which is free for contract customer or £15 for Payg (terms and conditions apply) and use a local SIM card to save in expensive bills.

If you do take your O2 sim then turn off voicemail by dial 1760 on your phone ,and use wifi when and where possible with turning off mobile data in your settings to stop costly data charges.

Unlock Form : https://www.o2.co.uk/apps/help/help?qid=1&q1=2&route=unlocking&case=Handset%20Unlocking%20Form

This link will show you the costs of using your phone abroad.

It sounds the other way round to me to be honest.:smileyhappy:

We do need the OP to claify but perhaps they got the information they needed from the links supplied by @Anonymous ?
