Roaming data in Australia

[Mrex]

Hi I will be in Australia  for two weeks first week is the last week of March and the second week is the first week of April. Does this me that I have to buy two one month data roaming allowances?

This depends which data-roaming bundle you're referring to.

The Roam Abroad pass, which allows use of all your UK allowances (voice, text & data) is £25/billing month with the first month pro-rata.

The Travel Data passes run on a (UK) calendar days basis from when you apply them

Assuming the roam abroad pass, when is your bill date, and when do you travel?

@Mrex : If you mean the Roam Abroad Pass, it depends on your billing cycle.

The Roam Abroad Pass costs £25 per billing month from the billing month you order it (text ROAMING PASS to 150) until the billing month you cancel it (text STOP ROAMING PASS to 150). For all billing months during which you have the Pass it is charged at the full £25. However if the Pass is carried over from the 1st billing month to the next it will be charged pro-rata for that 1st month alone.

Thanks for your prompt response. That makes sense to change pro-rata for the first month.
