Roaming and travelling
Daughter is travelling to Austrailasia for 5months and wanting the best way to stay connected. Have experienced poor roaming in morocco despite following SKY mobile guides. Does the passport plus actually work or are we better off getting an eSIM like holafly.?
Any advice would be helpful.

Re: Roaming and travelling
Roaming for 5 months may cause problems as the sim needs periodic connection in the UK / ROI. Roaming is designed for a holiday for an few weeks not an extended period.

Re: Roaming and travelling
Your daughter would be better off not using her Sky one if she could get it to work as she could rack up a large bill depending on the countries she is visiting as not all are covered by the daily £2 fee for others you pay for what you use like this:
£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)
