Roaming Usage

I have an unlimited plan which, according to the Fair Use Policy, is capped when roaming to 30gb. How can I tell how much data I've used when roaming and potentially approaching this limit?

You usually get a SMS when you are approaching your roaming limit. I suggest you set a spend cap of £0 to avoid any unwanted charges. Sometimes your phone can also hold this information under usage.

Hi ​@Eejit,

 

Thank you for your message.

 

We will send you SMS alerts when you reach 80% and 100% of your 30GB roaming cap. While there is no dedicated live tracker in the app specifically for roaming, you can monitor overall usage via the iD Mobile App dashboard. I would also suggest you set your bill cap to £0.00 to avoid any unwanted charges. Sometimes your phone can also hold this information under usage.

 

Thanks.

The iD Mobile App was the first place I looked. Unless it's hidden away somewhere, the only information I am given is that I have Unlimited and that it will renew in 4 days. I've looked everywhere else in the app. I've set my bill cap to £0.00 as suggested.
