I am looking at the unlimited data only sim.

Can it be used abroad without any roaming charges?

I'd like to put it in a mifi device and be able to use it as a personal wifi device when travelling abroad and in the UK.

Hi ​@Jbmt82

 

Thank you for getting in touch. 

 

Please be advised that iD Mobile SIM cards were designed to be used in mobile phones only and we cannot guarantee that the SIM will work in a WiFi/MiFi router. 

 

All our SIM only plans include texts, minutes and data allowances, we do not offer data only plans. You may follow this link for more information on the 50 free roaming destinations: https://www.idmobile.co.uk/help-and-support/eu-roaming

 

We have 50 free roaming destinations where you’ll be able to use your allowances like you would when you’re home in the UK. If you’re travelling to a country that is not included in the free roaming destinations we do offer Roam Beyond data-only add-ons for 50 popular destinations.

Thanks,
