It is all down to the roaming agreements signed many moons ago, that means data speeds in the US are throttled for Consumers, mostly on AT&T, so it might be worth trying the network on T-Mobile. 

Enterprise customers don't suffer the same throttling. 


You would be better for Data using a US sim card.

It doesn't matter which network you roam on as O2 throttle speeds to 0.5mbps regardless. 

From the T&C's:

O2 Travel is available to Consumer Pay Monthly customers and can be obtained as:

  1. a. a paid subscription, with unlimited minutes and texts and data (with capped data speeds of 500 kbps) in all our O2 Travel destinations......

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.
Please select the post that helped you best and mark as the solution. This helps other members in resolving their issues faster. Thank you.
