17 year old daughter on holiday activate roaming but its my account?

Hi My EE account includes my daughters mobile phone. She is going on holiday next week and roaming abroad advice suggests that i can't add on a 7 day roaming plan until she lands in Spain. I will be flying at the same time, how can I ensure her plan can be activated?

You can't! She will be the 1 receiving the text inviting her to buy the roaming plan.

As she is on contract, she should remember to text ROAMING to 150 before leaving UK to ensure the roaming ability is enabled on her no.

The default fallback will always be a £2.59 daily charge, if your daughter doesn't choose the £15/weekly option.
