With the summer holidays here, avoid costly mobile charges abroad with these handy roaming tips.

Make use of roaming bundles

Roaming bundles are there to save you money and can help your tariff go a bit further whilst abroad. Garnell customers can call before they travel and get advice on the most suitable bundles for their usage. We’ll even apply the bundle our end so all you have to worry about is catching the plane.  

Download entertainment before you travel

Most of the major streaming services such as Netflix and Spotify allow you to download content straight onto your devices. Not only does this save you streaming data whilst abroad, it’s also ideal for long flights and lazy days on the beach.  

Turn data roaming off

If you don’t plan to use data whilst you’re away, or just want to take away the risk of data roaming charges, the best way to ensure this is by turning off your data roaming. This option can be found in the data or roaming part of your phone settings.

Use Wi-Fi where possible

Restaurants, bars and cafes often provide complimentary Wi-Fi, so make the most of the free data whilst sipping on your morning espresso.

Europe’s included

Remember, for most networks now, roaming in Europe is included in your domestic minutes texts and data plan. Make sure to double check, however, before you travel to avoid any nasty surprises.
