Use a local sim for calling US numbers and using data or check if you have O2 Travel Inclusive.

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.

If you have O2 Travel you can use your phone for £4.99 per day which gives you minutes for calls and texts and data.

If you don't have this you will pay international rates8

However you would be far better with a local sim as roaming speeds are very slow. Use Wifi wherever you can and keep in touch with friends and family using Whatsapp or messenger.
