we've got 2 EE phones on unlimited data plan. We wondered what would the charge be for using our calls/data on the Isle of Man for the 2 weeks we're there? I was also thinking of buying a Sim just for data in the car on pay as you go. So would I be charged for each sim whilst there now that EU rules apply, or can I opt in to something on our current packages to avoid daily charges?
thanks

@Hoonin : As it is part of EU, you may use your usual UK allowances there with up to 50 GB (contract) or 25 GB (PAYG) data per billing month if you have more. If on contract & your contract started after 07/07/2021 there'll be a £2 / day charge for using your UK allowances in EU or alternatively you may buy the Roam Abroad Pass for £11.40 / month.
If you are on contract, remember to text ROAMING to 150 before you leave UK to ensure roaming is enabled on your account.

Neither the Isle of Man or the UK are part of the EU.
I have not been able to find any UK provider who allows free roaming in the Isle of Man.
