Hi, I am travelling to Morocco today. Both my wife and I are sky mobile customers. How much will we be charged for using our phones?

^ this is the expensive bit.  Check your emails etc. and before you know if you've spent £50.

It is always handy to save this link to check out the costs when going abroad:

To avoid those charges it is advisable to make sure data and roaming is turned off before you leave the UK.
