Hi! So off I'll be going with my iPhone to Japan.
I'll be given an internet-only sim card on arrival. I'm not planning to phone home, but will keep in touch via Whatapp. Do I need to do anything else?

@StitchKate : If you're not using WiFi you will need to buy a data add-on.
As it is not in EU, you cannot use your usual UK allowances there but will need to pay the charges or buy roaming add-ons as set out in https://ee.co.uk/help/mobile/roaming/roaming-costs/countries/japan.
If you are on contract, remember to text ROAMING to 150 before you leave UK to ensure the roaming ability is enabled on your account.
If you are on PAYG, make sure you have used your PAYG SIM to make a call or text in the UK.
