As it is not in EU, you cannot use your usual UK allowances there unless you buy the Roam Further Pass for £10 pm 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/usa .

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

Hello @Mazwil 

 

Welcome to the EE community

 

Firstly you need to ensure your phone is setup to allow international roaming, which you can do via your myEE online account or app. You could also text ROAMING to 150.

 

You can view costs for roaming in any country using the roaming costs tool here - this page should also recommend use of the "Roam Further" pass which allows you to use your UK allowances in the USA. There's details on this EE help page
