All Tesco Mobile customers are automatically set up to use their phones abroad. This service is called roaming. Tesco Mobile has teamed up with an international roaming partner which gives our customers world-wide access to hundreds of destinations. Please note that some handsets may need the settings to be changed before you can use your phone abroad – you’ll know if you need to change the settings if you don’t have a service when you arrive in your destination. Don’t panic! To ensure you are up to date on latest tips on roaming, including the steps you may need to take to change the settings on your phone please see our section on tips when travelling.

Certain types of services may also be subject to increased charges when roaming, including but not limited to premium rate, freephone and/or low cost numbers.
