Going on a Caribbean cruise

[Beckydxoxo]

Hi I am going on a cruise in January around the Caribbean. I know I will have to buy an add on for mobile data but because I am stopping off everyday at different places. Barbados. Dominica. Puerto Rico. Virgin Islands etc. 

I can’t put multiple places in to pay for roaming every day, is there an easier and cheaper way to be able to get data roaming for anywhere in the Caribbean for 2 weeks?

I am a PAYG customer. I normally pay £15 a month for my unlimited texts and minutes and my data. 

I just don’t know what to buy and how much I’ll be paying for 2 weeks in different places of the Caribbean. 

any help given will be appreciated thank you!!

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/ > PAYG. Upon arrival you should be offered these data add-ons for the Caribbean:

£65 for 225mb is crazy that doesn’t even last 7 days. Is there any good eSIM websites I can do by any chance?

    Agree with Beckydxoxo,  ludicrous addons, went to North Macedonia,  my 15mb lasted about 7 minutes, complete waste of money. You would have thought that EE could come up with something better than that, complete ripoff.  I suppose the best suggestion is to try and find a local internet log-on in a bar or hotel, or, other than an emergency, don't use it.

Hi cheers for the reply. I ain’t doing EE deal it’s a bloody joke,  I can’t connect to any wifi in hotels. As I’m on a cruise. I managed to find an eSIM that had 5gb for 30 days. That would easily last me 2 weeks just to keep in touch with family and friends.

When on a cruise ship, you are inherently at the behest of the cruise line for certain things. WiFi & telephony is one of them.
