Foreign SIM Card Advice

Using your mobile phone abroad….

Nothing beats the convenience of using a mobile phone whilst you travel, but the international roaming charges can be expensive. However, by using a foreign SIM card in your mobile phone you can avoid all mobile roaming charges, make outgoing calls at local rates and receive calls for free. The savings can be as much as 90%! Essential Travel has teamed up with Roameo, the UK’s leading provider of foreign SIM cards, to provide a simple solution for you.

There is no expiry date on the sim card or any credit that you buy so you can use credit from your holiday years down the line! • Give your new telephone number and access numbers to friends and family before you travel thus avoiding the expense of having to tell them while you’re abroad. Also having a new number means that you can avoid unwanted calls that you would actually have to pay to receive otherwise.

• Change the voicemail message on your current UK mobile telephone or landline to let people know that you can be contacted on your new number.

• Before swapping your SIM card make sure all your phone numbers are saved to your phone handset memory. This will mean that you can change your SIM card as many times as you like and still have your important phone numbers. Just remember to insert +44 before the numbers when calling the UK.

• Remember to put those all important numbers in your phone before you go, your airline confirmation number, travel insurance company, hotels and anything else you might need.
