What's the point in getting this? We can use our phones while in the EU for free (free data)

If you are a heavy user, tethering to streaming devices on holdiay for exampel you might go over your allocated allowance for roaming

Dont suppose anyone knows what network it would use in Ireland? It would be handy to be able to buy instantly if broadband went down in the house. Also handy as I can't tether on current plan.

Also includes Switzerland which is not included in roaming.

It's worth looking at Mobimatters (and Airalo, Ubigi, Holafky) as well for longer lasting eSims with lower limits - handy as backup or for travel.

sorry to display my ignorance but travelling with three teenagers for 10 days to Italy this week …. can they get this for the month and then go back to their original number when we get back ?

It’s an eSIM and some (most?) current phones allow you to have an eSim alongside your regular sim. So you can use this just for data roaming and it not have any issues with your normal sim.

Would it work on a ship going to France, to avoid the crazy roaming charges?

The problem with the crossings to France is that there are whole swathes without any mobile coverage (you'll often notice that the phone picks up a wee bit near Lands End but drops off again) so this wouldn't be any benefit.

The roaming charges are from connecting to the "Internet at Sea" satellite based service . Best option is to just turn off mobile data.

The last O2 sim I tried automatically connected to Three but could manually connect to Eir.
