Spend Cap and Roaming

p1979 · ‎10-10-2024

Am travelling abroad for 2 weeks in November (Spain & Portugal), am thinking of just paying the daily roaming fee - it is a cruise, so 4 days at sea when the phone won't be used!

My current spend cap is set to £20.

Does the daily roaming charge affect the spend cap - will I need to increase the spend cap before I go on holiday???

Thanks in advance.....

The Spend Cap will limit the £2.47 daily roaming charge in the EU as well as call & text charges outside the EU, amongst other things.

For example if you intend to spend 10 days roaming in EU, you'll need a Spend Cap of at least £25, possibly more as a contingency.
