Going to Greece - PAYG £5 pack

[LisaMortVickery]

Hi,

I and quite a few family members are on PAYG £5 per month packs and I've heard from an EE shop we need to get additional  £10 roaming packs when we go to Greece if we want to use mobile data, phone, text (more for essential comminication) when we're there.  Yet when I text RO Greece to 150, it tells me that I can use my Pack  in Greece at no extra cost.  I'm tempted just to top up all phones by £5 so that we could use that if necessary should the PAYG £5 per month packs not work in Greece.   Any thoughts / advice?  Many thanks.

You can use yre mins, texts and data in the EU as you would in the UK as EE haven’t set a roaming charge for PAYG phones as of yet when going to the EU.

Can I still use my £10 PAYG top up in Santorini, Greece in November 2022 until February 2023 as I'll be there for 3 months? Will there be extra charges for roaming or making calls over internet e.g. whatsapp calls? Thank you.

@JAC58 : As yet EE haven't introduced any charges for PAYG users to use their UK allowances in the EU. EE has not yet announced if & when they may start. So you may continue to use your pack allowances in EU as before w/out charge.
