Assuming you’re pay monthly then yes, you’ll absolutely need to buy a roaming pass on arrival unless you’ve got a specific roaming product included in your plan.

Best way of checking is to text ROAMING to 150. It’ll ask you to reply with GOING (as you’ve not gone yet) and then reply with the destination.

It’ll then reply and let you know how much roaming will cost you, it’ll also send details of the add-ons if you do need one.

Roaming costs for the USA are listed at https://ee.co.uk/help/mobile/roaming/roaming-costs > USA

If you're on pay-monthly, you should text ROAMING to 150 before leaving the UK, to ensure the free roaming facility is enabled thus unlocking access to US networks.
