Talkmobile roaming fair usage policy
Although you can use your allowance for free within the EU, you must adhere to the fair usage policy.
You cannot roam for excessive periods within the EU. This is defined as 61 days or more within a 120 day period. If you exceed this amount, you will be sent a warning email or text. If you continue to roam 14 days after receiving a warning, Talkmobile will charge you £7 per week as long as you are considered a ‘permanent EU roamer’.
If you are on a plan that gives you a data allowance of 15GB, you cannot exceed 15GB per month. If you go over the limit, you will have to pay an out of plan rate for any data you use within the remaining monthly billing period.
In accordance with the terms and conditions, Talkmobile reserves the right to limit your service or disconnect your SIM if you continue to break the fair usage policy.
