What is Vodafone Global Roaming?
Vodafone Global Roaming has replaced EuroTraveller and WorldTraveller and is included in all new and existing Pay Monthly plans. The service lets you take your home plan of data, texts and minutes to 110 destinations across the globe.
In 50 of the 110 destinations, you can use your home plan without any extra charge, even if you’re using your minutes from Croatia or checking your emails in France. Click here to view the 50 roam free destinations now
In the other 60 destinations you’ll pay just £5 a day to use your home plan of data, minutes and texts. You’ll only be charged on the days you use your phone.
Better yet, receiving calls and texts is free, so if you only take calls or read texts on any given day, you won’t incur the £5 charge. Click here to view the 60 roam further destinations now
How to enable Global Roaming
All new and existing Pay monthly plans (handset, SIM only and Mobile Broadband) have Vodafone Global Roaming added automatically – no registration or activation is required! However, to use it, you need to have Data Roaming enabled on your device and ensure the “data while abroad bar” is disabled in your My Vodafone account or the My Vodafone App, you can contact your account manager if you need any help with this.
