What countries will you be visiting as not all are covered by the £2 daily charge as those that are not can see you hit with a large bill when using your mobile so you can check what charges apply here:

Those that are no covered generally see these charges apply if not even higher:

£2,160 per GB (yes this is correct)

£2.16 per minute Calls to local or UK mobile and landline numbers

£1.80 per minute to receive calls

£0.50 per text message to UK numbers and mobiles

£0.58 per picture message(MMS)

As for the spend cap it needs to be high enough to cover your stay if you plan to have one set.

Each of those are £2 per 24 hours and this allows you access to your usual package as if you were in the UK, so call to UK mobiles and landlines are included but calls to local numbers in each country will be charged at international rates.
