@Hairdresser69 : 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/mobile/roaming/roaming-costs/countries/unitedarabemirates .
If you are on contract, remember to text ROAMING to 150 before you leave UK to ensure roaming is enabled on your account.
If you are on PAYG, make sure you have used your PAYG SIM to make a call or text before leaving the UK.
