Make sure roaming is turned on and that you do not go over the 25GB restriction on using your data during your billing period otherwise you will be charged for what more you use. The daily cost is £2.

@Rickyb1888

You need to ensure roaming and mobile data are turned on in your phone settings and it will kick in when you send a text, make a call or use a small amount of data. Set any spend cap to cover the total number of days you are there. Remember that calls to local numbers are charged extra at international rates and there is now a limit on data use of 25GB per billing period, after which Sky can charge you an extra £2.50 per GB or even suspend your useage duel to overuse.
