Daughter travel to South Africa

[RoystonP]

Hi,

My daughter, an O2 customer whose bill I pay as part of my account, is going to South Africa 23 Jul to 5 Aug) on a school trip.

Is there anything that I need to do to enable her to use her phone in South Africa?

Thank you in advance.

Regards,

Royston

Cheapest option is to use the O2 Travel Bolt On, which gives you unlimited minutes, texts and data for just £6 a day. You can opt-in to O2 Travel by texting TRAVEL to 23336. You’ll only be charged for the days you use it.

HAs anyone else tried a third party esim in South Africa so I dont have to pay the O2 travel costs and if so do calls and text work normally
