    Hi ​@Wade74 


    As Egypt isn’t included in iD Mobile Roaming you will incur charges.

    If you wish to use your phone in Egypt then use your internet search engine and search ‘best SIM deal when visiting Egypt’ which will give you the options available to choose from and the networks you can connect to during your visit.

    Once back in the UK, delete/remove the travel SIM and reinstate your iD Mobile SIM.

    If you wish to use your iD Mobile Sim in Egypt you can find the roaming data add-ons and other charges here:-
    https://www.idmobile.co.uk/help-and-support/roaming

    To avoid any unexpected charges keep your Bill Cap on £0 to avoid out of plan charges. 

    • Open the iD Mobile app or login online
    • Go to My Services
    • Select Bill Cap
    • Increase the bill cap amount
    • Save the changes



    Hope this helps x
