roaming in turkey

I’ve travelled to Turkey with my family and had some money within my monthly cap that I wanted to use for data roaming from the time between the airport and my hotel where there’s WiFi. 
 

However you guys sent me multiple messages while in Turkey (not via WhatsApp) and charged me for the privilege using up my cap. It made it really challenging as I couldn’t message our transfer or do any language translation on google. 
 

Can you refund me the charges you have given me by texting me and send me some data in the meantime to cover what I would have had on my account?

Hi ​@Jemma Hough  hope you are having a lovely trip!

However, as ​@MZone  has advised, roaming in Turkey is chargeable.

We do offer add ons which may be a cheaper alternative. You can find out more here - Your guide to Add-ons | iD Mobile Network
