I’m going on holiday to Egypt and can’t see it on the list of counties covered by the travel bolt on. Will I be able to use my phone and what will the charges be?

Unfortunately Egypt isn't eligible for any bolt ons and usage abroad is expensive

Your best bet is to either use a local sim OR use Wifi only via hotels, internet cafe etc.

Make sure people at home have Messenger or Whatsapp dowloaded, so you can communicate via that route.

TURN VOICEMAIL OFF as you will be charged whether you answer the call or not. If you do answer your voicemail you will be charged twice.

Enjoy your holiday, but please remember it's high cost to use your mobile.

Have a great time.
