I have a contract with Tesco and it is £8.50 a month. I have a £2.50 buffer so it can never ever be more than £11 a month. When I go abroad I don't have to worry .

Loads of places have free wi-fi. I use that when abroad. Data packages can be expensive. How long are you planning to be away for? Check what your mobile provider offers. Good luck!

Taking my mobile abroad, and just want to pick up any emails or just check a few things on the Internet. what do I do with my mobile - do I turn off data roaming to avoid a large bill? Is it worth buying extra data and if so how much? I'm confused. What do most people do? Lots of places won't have wifi will they? Would welcome advice from a seasoned traveler. Someone mentioned buying a sim abroad, now I'm completely baffled, please put me straight please. I don't want to be cut off as I like my phone but don't want to run up big charges.
I own my phone and have a sim only contract.
