Don't use much data really because WiFi in the hotel so using little out and about, just messaging between our group and Facebook. Thing is I've tried to make 2 calls using the UK number. Neither worked. As soon as I made the call with the Irish sim it connected. Also, I confirm I can tether to other phones. Had 4 connected at one stage. One of the others here ordered the SIM 2 weeks before we went and didn't arrive. They're slow, my memory. They also sell on Amazon, I'd be ordering there next time.

Costs £10 for 1GB plan, £20 for 12GB or else All you can eat for £25. I keep one handy for countries my 3 Ireland sim hasnt got 3 like home in.

Is that the main difference? This seems pretty good https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B075CP4L3X/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_c_api_i_oGxOCbPEQ6X29

webpal wrote: » Back home now and have to say there is a lot more free wifi in US than I anticipated. I think I only used 500mb out of 12gb. Anyone know how I could tell exactly? There's 11.5 gb left to use until next March (3uk) so happy to post this on to someone if they want it, just send me a pm.
