I'm going to Thailand from UK on Sunday. I was looking at the Travel bolt-on. Presumably if I use Wi-Fi and WhatsApp while I'm there, I won't need the bolt-on? (I only text and make calls - minimal use of data).

Hi @Maxxx 

It's always best to have the O2 Travel Bolt on just in case. It's free to apply and £6 per day only if you use it.

Without a bolt on even minimal use of data would cost you these are the standard rates

Standard rates

Making calls£2/min
Receiving calls£2/min
Sending texts50p/text
Using data£7.20/MB
This is not O2 and we are all customers here similar to yourself and cannot answer account type queries.

Thanks Enlli,

 

I think I will add it on then. But when I  go to "payment" it says the "Standard Rates in our Europe Zone" will be removed straight away. Does this mean that if I use my phone on the 2 days before I go, I'll be charged?

You will not be charged for calls made from the UK or any EU country.

@Maxxx 

That's a pointless message as EU roaming is included in your tariff.

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.
