Data roaming abroad just got affordable

by 0044 GURU in Advice, Data SIM Card

Now that it appears your iphone may have a mind of it own it’s more important than ever to get your data costs under control. According to Money Saving Expert; iPhone users are still being charged for using the internet on their mobile overseas, even after they’ve switched that function off.

After the huge success of our sister website dataroam.co.uk we have decided to bring some of the products across to 0044. Our new range of data roaming SIM cards will allow you to get control of your costs and save up to 90% versus roaming.

Roaming in Europe?

Don’t be fooled by recent EU legislation. Your UK network can still charge you up £0.36 +VAT per MB.  Our European data SIM card costs £29.99 (including 60MB) is the ideal alternative. It offers a flat rate data roaming fee of just £0.25/MB throughout 27 countries. Making it perfect for low data users who just require affordable access on the go.

Unfortunately the SIM card doesn’t offer great rates for use in France. However if you wish to use the French Pre-Paid SIM card you can get data for £0.15/MB. And we also offer brilliant pay-monthly roaming plans for France & Spain. Starting from just £45.00/Month they provide up to 10GB of data! Consequently they are a huge favorite amongst business users and expats with a thirst for data.

Roaming in the US

This is where roaming really does start to cost astronomical amounts. Believe it or not some UK networks charge up to £6.00/MB.  So it’s not surprising that their profits per MB have been reported as being 1 Million %! Thankfully our US data SIM card offers 1GB of data in the US for $54.99 (equivalent of £0.04/MB) and that includes unlimited local talk and SMS.
