Charges FAQs
What’s the difference between International and Roaming?
- International = when you’re in the UK, calling/ texting someone who is not in the UK
- Roaming = when you use your phone (calls, SMS or data) when you are not in the UK
- It is always advisable to call in to customer services prior to travelling, just to ensure there are no bars on your account
- All incoming calls whilst you are in the UK are free
- Typically, you’d be billed on your next invoice, however, it can take up to 3 months to be billed for any international or roaming charges
- Usually your handset will select a network automatically, however, this isn’t always the case. If you are getting no service, try manually selecting a network in your device settings
- If the above doesn’t work, you will need to contact customer services
