Hi,

I will be using a travel simcard while in China but in case I run out of data since I'm staying for a month, I wonder if it will be possible for me to activate an add-on roaming data package once I'm in China?

Hi ​@Concetta, 

 

Thank you for getting in touch. 

 

I can confirm that you’re able to purchase a roaming add-on for use in China. The following options are currently available:

China 1-Day Add-on – 2GB for £5.00

China 5-Day Add-on – 10GB for £20.00

China 10-Day Add-on – 20GB for £35.00

 

These add-ons can be purchased before you travel or while you’re already abroad (as long as you can access your account).

 

Thanks, 

Anneline
