If you have used the full 25GB allowed then you need to wait until it resets which will be on your billing date because if you don't and you use more data you will be charged for every GB you use so you are going to wrack up a large bill. If WiFi is available I would use that if you can.

See this link

Roaming using Roaming Passport Plus (so in 120 countries) is now limited to 25GB per billing period.

From Skys own website...

"When you roam using our Roaming Passport Plus, we consider that up to 25GB per billing period is a reasonable amount of data to use. If you exceed this amount, we'll assume that you're no longer using data in the way expected of a reasonable customer for periodic travel."

"We may suspend your service, restrict your usage, or charge you for the data that you use in excess of these amounts (currently £2.50 per GB), and we'll let you know by SMS or email before we do so."

...and although you can use the Piggybank for your data allowance it cannot be used to override the 25GB limit.
