How to purchase passport plus ?

Hi, I'm going to Morocco with my 10 year old daughter I a few weeks and I do t want to be out of touch with home so can anyone tell me how I purchase Passport Plus please and how it works etc. It appears to be the only thing on offer or I just turn my phone off ( which I'm not doing ) whi h leaves only the 3rd option, I can only receive texts ( I believe) but I cannot make / send any and I cannot send / receive calls, sms, anything basically ??? Is that about right ?? So surely this Passport Plus has to be worth something ??? Any advice - Greatly appreciated 🙏 Thanks, Laura

Hi @Laura5210 pasport plus doesn't cover Morocco, it's international rates and will be very expensive, and I mean very if you want to use your sky sim. What you can do is turn off roaming and mobile data before leaving the Uk and put your phone in flight mode. When you arrive at your hotel just turn WiFi on and use hotel/free WiFi wherever possible.

@Laura5210

You don't purchase passport plus as it kicks in when you either send a text message, make a phone call or use mobile data but I should point out that it is going to be really expensive:

£2.16 per mb (not GB) for mobile data use.

£2.16 per minute for calls to UK landlines and UK mobiles.

£1.80 per minutes for receiving a call.

50p oer text to local mobile or UK mobiles.

58p per picture message to UK Mobiles.

Your only other option is to either only use Wifi or use a local sim while you are in the country.
