I’m going to be island hopping whereby some destinations are included in my plan, and other are not? If I leave roaming on, but set my bill cap to £0.00, will this ensure that I don’t get any unexpected charges? I want to use my included data, on the islands that I can. Thanks

Hi @neilcounter ,

Yes, that’s correct
If you leave roaming on and set your bill cap to £0.00, this will stop any out-of-plan charges, so you won’t get unexpected costs on islands that aren’t included in your plan.

You’ll still be able to use your included data in destinations covered by your plan. In locations that aren’t included, data will simply stop once the cap is reached.

This is the best way to travel and stay protected from extra charges.
