Hello, I am travelling to Africa (Morocco) soon and am wondering if I will be able to receive login verification texts, or if there is anything I need to do to prepare before hand?

Any information is much appreciated.

An SMS is free to receive when you’re roaming @eldan, so provided your handset and your iD account are set-up for roaming it should be fine.

Roaming in Morocco is not included in your iD plan calls, texts, and mobile data allowances though.

So texts are free to receive when roaming, even in countries not on the “50 inclusive roaming destinations”, such as Morocco? I just need to clarify this or it could cause a lot of problems for me.

Correct @eldan - an SMS is free to receive wherever you’re roaming.

Hi @eldan 

 

We wouldn’t expect roaming to interrupt any one time password (OTP) requests.

 

Our roaming advice page can be found here.
