it'll work wherever they have a 3 network so you're in luck

Is it free when roaming on 3's own networks?

I never knew they were stopping it from ebing free by the end of the year where did you hear this ciano14?

If you're on 3Pay, you may be limited to the UK and Italy. But with 3's policies, it's hard to tell for sure until you try it.

When I was in the UK recently, on 3 bill pay, the phone would revert to O2 where there was no 3 coverage.

These calls were included in my free allowance so I don't think you need to be on a 3 network in those countries.

That doesn't work the other way around for 3UK subs.

I lent one of my phones to a niece to use in Donegal: it roamed on Vodafone but she was charged for everything she did on it (such as ringing 333 to check the balance after sending an SMS).
