@taff1605  All sims work abroad you might need to purchase add ons so you can use an allowance while there.

@taff1605 : To give you some idea of what it'll cost there, you 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 .

Hi Chris,
yes, know they work abroad, just want to avoid extra ee charges, so was thinking of getting a card before or when there,(specifically for america use) as might want to use data roaming, for sat nav purposes.
cheers, for the reply.

Thanks for the reply
am looking for a pre paid sim card l can just use in usa re data for sat nav purposes, to avoid additional ee charges.
thougt it might work out cheaper.

Cheaper than what? It'll cost you £7/day for 100MB data to use an EE PAYG SIM in USA.

You may find it cheaper to get a local SIM on Verizon or AT&T/T-Mobile

[taff1605]

do you think that would be enough for daily sat nav use, running google maps?
not using phone for anything else.

[taff1605]

that was what l was thinking.
its just, would they be compatible with my phone, as locked to ee

100MB ain't much! Perhaps in small bursts.
