EU roaming on iPad

Oscarr · ‎25-08-2023

Hi everyone, I’m currently on holiday in the EU, I have a pay as you go data sim in my iPad preloaded with 120gb which I buy every year. Last year this worked no problem but I see ee have changed their rules and I must now pay £10 to use data for the week. I don’t mind doing this but I cannot workout how to pay as you cannot send sms messages from an iPad and I don’t seem to be able to do this online! Any help is greatly appreciated, many thanks.

@Oscarr : Roaming on PAYG has changed since June '23 & there are now charges for PAYG SIMs to use their pack allowances in EU. Pre-paid data SIMs, not having a pack, are for use in UK only.
