Roaming Charges

Paddywhelan3 — Fri, 15 May 2026 08:38:37 GMT

I had a notification from the My Sky app yesterday saying I could now roam in 120 countries using my current data plan at no extra cost. However, when I clicked on the notification it too me to the app main page rather than to a page about the roaming to find out more.

Did anyone else get the notification? Or shed any light on it as I cannot see any articles around the update anywhere making me think it was sent in error perhaps.

cheers

Hi @Paddywhelan3 i haven't seen any announcements from sky to say this, they have added extra countries to the roaming passport plus list charging £2 for 24 hours use but I haven't seen or can find anything relating to the introduction of free roaming.

Other than that I can't find any articles about it.

From OP's name I would guess ROI.

And here's the page: https://www.sky.com/help/articles/mobile-roi-roaming-charges

...and it seems like inclusive:

Roam Like Home

All Sky Mobile customers can roam in 44 European destinations and in the UK at no extra cost. Use your data and unlimited standard calls and texts just as you would at home.

Yeah @PandJ2020 occurred to me after posting as I remembered that ROI (being in EU) still have free roaming.
