Morocco is a Rest of the World country so very expensive to use your Sky sim.
The costs are:
£2,160 per GB (yes that is 2 thousand)
£2.16 per minute Calls to local numbers 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)
A cheaper alternative would be to buy and use a local SIM card while in the country.

Re: Roaming in Morocco
Hi @Mamabear23 to add to what @Daniel0210 has posted, make sure roaming and mobile data are turned off before leaving the UK. Also turn on flight mode whilst still in the UK. This will prevent your phone connecting to the local network as soon as you land,wracking up a large bill. Whilst in flight mode you can still connect to local WiFi.

Re: Roaming in Morocco
Hi sorry if this seems a silly question but it's new to me. I've got an eSIM for my upcoming holiday and haven't used one before.. Am I right in thinking I need my primary line off (the sky one) and knock my eSIM line on and enable data within this line?
I've also put a £5 spend cap on - I'm assuming c that if I do something wrong, the spend cap will kick in anyway to avoid running up a high bill?

Personally I would physically remove the SIM. (I presume it physical?)
But a spend cap should act as a safety net.
