Hi - I am going to Peru later this year and would like to find out about roaming charges if I want to make a call, send a Whatsapp message or a text.  Is it likely to be very expensive?  

Thanks Kash

Hi Mohammed - many thanks for taking the trouble to reply. I'd been thinking about a local SIM. Thanks to everyone for your help and suggestions. 


Hey @AHutton54 It’s not inclusive of roaming so may well be worth getting a local or eSIM when abroad.

Just be sure to cap your plan at £0.00 and configure the eSIM correctly.

Looks like roaming in PERU using iD Mobile is expensive… might be worth looking at using an eSIM instead, if your handset supports these @AHutton54.
