Egypt

[Dunc1961]

As about I'm going to Egypt next month I only need data but struggling to get prices, I'm on a monthly contract and would need about 30 gig.
Anyone any ideas ?

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/egypt.

If you are on contract, remember to text ROAMING to 150 before you leave UK to ensure roaming is enabled on your account.

Want to use internet data? No problem, you can buy a roaming data add-on when you get there. You’ll receive a text when you land with info on this.
I don't want to wait till I get there I want to know before I go.
thanks for the info.

Morning @Dunc1961 

Please give us a call on 150 and the team will see what data add-ons are available for your account for when you travel to Egypt.

Thank you Leanne I've tried this and seem to get nowhere as far as getting though , the new system EE has in place is great for information but rubbish if you need to talk to anyone.
I'm thinking a Vodafone sim 30 gig data for £18 for 30 days is the way I will end up going  .
Thank you for the help as much as you can.

Just a heads up to anyone wanting data for Egypt, EE do-not offer any type of data add-ons.

These are the data add-ons you'll be offered on landing in Egypt:

I rang and asked this morning and they do-not do any data plans at all for Egypt, My data will work as it is now on my contract but its massively expensive. 
Guy at EE advised me to buy a local sim when I get there.
