USA roaming pay as you go

Anna54000 — Mon, 10 Oct 2022 19:08:42 GMT

Hi there,

I'm on a pay as you go pack and going to the USA for two weeks at the end of October. Is it possible to use my data allowance there (I have about 30GB)? What's the best/cheapest option to keep using data there as a pay as you go customer? The information I found on the EE website is quite confusing.

Thanks,

Anna

@Anna54000 Your pack allowance will not cover you while there. You have to purchase a data add on to use data.

Thanks for your reply. How much is a data add on for the US and how many data does it give me? And I also thought there was a special pack to buy in order to use my existing data allowance in the US?

Not for PAYG; that's only for contracts.

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/help-new/roaming-costs/countries/usa > PAYG.
