I am going to Turkey next Saturday for 10 days can I buy the roaming pass before I travel so that it works when I land?

    Hi ​@Suebrown25,

     

    Yes, you can purchase a roaming add-on before you travel. However, we'd recommend waiting until the day before you arrive in Turkey, or once you've arrived, as the add-on will become active from the time of purchase.

     

    For example, if you purchase a 10-day add-on days before your trip, you'll lose some of the validity before you even reach Turkey.

     

    Purchasing it just before you travel, or when you land, will help you get the full benefit of the add-on during your holiday.

     

    I hope you have a fantastic trip to Turkey!

     

    Regards,

    Hi ​@Suebrown25,

     

    No, you don't need to have roaming turned on in order to purchase the 10-day Roam Beyond pass.

     

    We'd recommend connecting to Wi-Fi when you land and then purchasing the add-on through the iD Mobile app or My Account.

     

    If you switch roaming on before purchasing the add-on, there's a risk that your phone could connect to a local network and incur unexpected charges.

     

    Once the add-on has been purchased and is showing as active, you can then enable Data Roaming on your phone and start using your service.

     

    Regards,
