Roam Further

I have the Smart Benefit version of Roam Further and am in NZ - if locals text or call me, will they be charged local rates? I don't want to give out the number if they will be charged a premium for calling / messaging me? Thanks for your help

They will be charged their local network's international call rates for calling a UK no. It has nowt to with your own tariffs or where you are.

It will cost them to call/text you while you are in NZ exactly the same as it did when you were in UK. You are just a UK no. roaming the globe.
