How do I stop accidental roaming?
If you're travelling close to an EU border, your phone can sometimes pick up a network from the non-EU country on the other side. If this happens, you can end up using a lot of credit without realising it. To stop this from happening:
- Go to settings
- Then go to mobile data/wireless networks
- Find something like “Network selection”
- Choose the network you want to be on
If you’re not sure how to do this on your specific phone, ask our friendly community helpers. Make sure to let them know what phone you’re using.
