Can someone please explain whether we can make calls in South Africa (both to the UK but more importantly within SA but to UK registered mobiles) without taking out any extra add ons or doing anything at all.
The Roaming Beyond is about adding data - but that’s for internet browsing etc, not making calls. Right?
Can I make WhatsApp calls if I purchase extra data?
So when we land in SA will our phones work to make calls?
if the answer is yes, then Yay!
next question - at what cost. ??
