Hi all, I’m travelling to St. Thomas (one of the US Virgin Islands). I have a roam abroad pass. Does anyone know if this falls under USA for data roaming? Want to make sure I can use my data whilst I am away

@mattieredmond1 : No, the Roam Abroad Pass is not valid for US Virgin Islands. They are not counted as part of the US for EE roaming.

You cannot use your usual UK allowances outside the EU 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/virginislandsus.

As you are on contract, just remember to text ROAMING to 150 before you leave UK to ensure the roaming ability is enabled on your account.
