• What is data roaming?

  Data roaming allows your mobile phone to connect to the internet when you travel outside your home network, using partner networks in other countries. It ensures you stay online for maps, messaging, social media, and emergencies abroad, without relying on WiFi. For more details on staying connected while you travel, see our guide on data roaming and how it works.
