    Heading off for a few months soon, I'll be staying in Europe.
    I'm on meteor bill pay with a htc desire, 10gb data add on, but when I go it will be useless to me wont it? Or can I still use my data in a different country?

    OR

    Will I have to unlock the phone and get another 3G sim in another country and pay for that aswel as paying meteor?! :confused:
    :rolleyes:

    Your correct with your second option.

    All calls and texts will be charged for for, these are outside of your minutes/allowances as you are off your home network.

    Data is charged at €10 per MB.

    www.meteor.ie/roaming

    You still have to pay meteor your minimum monthly commitment as you signed a 12 or 18 month contract agreeing to that.

    Call them though, they may be able to suspend your account if your a particular length into your contract.

    €10 per MB!?

    I'd rather do without, just I will be using the internet to stay in touch, but not at prices like that :D

    Second sim would be cheaper, pay as you go sim from another company maybe..

    Yeah they might suspend the contract for a few months if I explain..

    All of that is the best option IMHO.

    They will not suspend your contract "if you explain". Do you not understand what a binding contract is?

    Meteor actually provide this service, if you are 3 or 6 months (not sure) into a contract. It's called a contract holiday and they will suspend your account for upto 3 months. However it will extend your contract length by the suspension period you have chosen.
