Roam at no extra cost in 83 worldwide destinations on Vodafone Xtra Global Roaming plans.

How does roaming with Vodafone work?

If you're on Pay monthly, we've split the world into Zones A, B, C, D and 'Rest of the World'.

If you're on Pay as you go, we've split the world into Zones A, B, 'Around the World' and 'Rest of the World'.

Roaming in Zone A is included in all plans. Roaming outside of Zone A will depend on where you're travelling to and what plan you're on.

Roaming in Rest of the World destinations

If you purchased your plan on or after 21 February 2024, you'll need to buy a Rest of the World Data Roaming pass.

If you bought your plan before 21 February 2024, you can either purchase a Rest of the World Data Roaming pass or pay for each megabyte of data.

To find out how much it'll cost to roam in a specific destination, use our Charge Checker

You can use your UK allowance of data, minutes and texts when you roam with our Pay monthly plans.

Roaming in Zone A is included in all our Pay monthly plans at no extra cost

With selected Xtra Plans, you can roam in our other zones as well

Roaming charges depend on what plan you have with us. Log in or register for My Vodafone to check your plan charges  

If your Xtra Plan has the benefit of inclusive roaming in 51 European destinations, you can use your UK allowance at no extra cost in Zone A and B . If your plan doesn't include this, it will cost you £2.42 a day or you can roam for cheaper with one of our European Roaming Passes

If your Xtra Plan has the benefit of inclusive roaming in 83 worldwide destinations, you can use your UK allowance at no extra cost in Zone A, B and C. If your plan doesn't include this, it'll cost you £7.39 a day to roam

You can also chat to TOBi to find out about your plan's charges.

What are European Roaming passes?

If your plan doesn't have inclusive roaming in our Europe Zone (Zone B), then it will cost you £2.42 a day to roam in our  European destinations . You can reduce this cost with one of our European Roaming passes, available as £12 for 8 days or £17 for 15 days.

Roaming on pay as you go plans.

With all our Pay as you go plans, you can use your data, minutes and texts in the UK and while roaming in Zone A (Republic of Ireland, Isle of Man, Iceland and Norway).

If you're roaming in Zone B (our Europe Zone) and want to make calls, send texts or use data, you'll need to purchase one of our 8-day Europe Extras. Pay as you go Plus customers will also need to purchase an Extra in order to receive calls.

If you're going further afield, your options depend on what Pay as you go plan you have:

Pay as you go Plus plans: You will need to add our Around the World Extra or Rest of the World Extra, depending on your destination. To check which Extra you'll need, visit our Charge checker page

You won't be able to make/receive calls, send texts or use data until you've bought your Extra - this is to help avoid any unexpected roaming charges.

Big Value Bundle or Pay as you go 1 plans: Our Around the World Roaming Extras give you an allowance of texts, minutes and data to use in 74 additional destinations , making it far more affordable to roam.

If you choose to roam without an Extra, standard roaming charges will apply - you'll be charged per call, text or MB of data, and it will be taken from your account credit.

Frequently asked questions

How much will it cost to use my device abroad.

Roaming charges will depend on what plan you're on.

If you're not sure, please chat to TOBi about your roaming charges.

How does Spend Manager work?

Vodafone Spend Manager helps you keep in control of any out-of-plan charges, such as roaming charges and international calls, by setting a limit on how much extra you can spend each month. That means no nasty bill shocks. This will help you manage your roaming, or you can even disable it altogether.

Any spending limits you set will work when you're roaming, however, if you've set your out-of-plan charges spend limit to £0, this means you won't be able to roam. We recommend reviewing your limit before you travel to make sure you get the most out of your phone when travelling abroad by setting your out-of-plan charges limit to £0.

You can add, change or remove your spending limit at any time for free in the My Vodafone app , in My Vodafone account or by calling us on 41156 , free from your Vodafone mobile.  Find out more on our dedicated  Spend manager page

How do I get inclusive roaming in 83 destinations included in my plan?

Move to any of our Unlimited Xtra plans , plus an additional fee, to get the full 83 worldwide inclusive destinations.

How do Pay monthly European Roaming Extras work?

European Roaming Passes allow you to use your monthly UK allowance of calls, texts and data in a Zone B destination.

A pass can be purchased at any time. It will remain on your account and will become active when you start roaming.

Your pass will last for either 8 or 15 days, depending on what pass you purchased.

You cannot purchase two passes at once so if your first pass runs out, you will have to purchase an additional pass.

You cannot roll over the Pass if you are roaming for less than 8 days.

Is there a limit on how long I can roam for?

Use of our services while in Zone A, Zone B (excluding the UK) and Zone C (for customers using their inclusive roaming that is included in their monthly charge) is intended for temporary, periodic travel such as holidays and short breaks.

We will monitor and check your roaming use. If, during any 4 month period, you roam in Zone A, B or C for 62 days or more AND your corresponding roaming usage exceeds your usage within the UK, you may incur additional roaming charges. We will send you notification two weeks prior to charging you any additional roaming charges, to allow you time to adjust your usage accordingly.

These additional roaming charges will be: £0.033 a minute for calls £0.01p a SMS £3.37 a 1GB of data (£0.33 per MB of data)

You will still be able to receive calls and texts from friends and relatives at no extra cost

Read more about our acceptable use policy

How much will I be charged if I go over my UK data allowance when roaming?

If you exceed your UK data allowance when you're abroad, you will be charged as you would be in the UK. The charges will last until your next billing date or until you return to the UK, whichever comes first.

If your UK allowance is greater than 25GB, then a fair usage policy of 25GB applies i.e. once you have exceeded 25GB data use, then you will be charged £3.37 a GB used. The charges will last until your next billing date or until you return to the UK, whichever comes first.

What's a roaming fair usage policy?

All our pay monthly plans are subject to a 25GB roaming fair use policy. This means that if your UK allowance is greater than 25GB, you can use up to 25GB data a month while roaming.

If your UK data allowance is less than 25GB, you can use your UK data allowance when abroad, but if you exceed it you'll be charged as you would be in the UK.

Where can I get 5G abroad?

From 26 July 2019, if you're on a 5G-ready plan and have a 5G device, you can also use 5G in Germany, Italy, Spain and Republic of Ireland where it's available. In addition, you can also benefit from Vodafone Unlimited on 4G in 83 destinations worldwide - the largest roaming footprint of any UK provider.

Why do I need a Roaming Extra for my Pay as you go Plus plan?

We have 8-day Roaming Extras available for our Europe destinations and Rest of the World destinations, and either 8-day or 15-day Roaming Extras available for our Around the World destinations.

See a full list of our roaming destinations

Make sure you're connected to Wi-Fi before purchasing, and note that any Extras will begin from the moment of purchase. If you run out of data, minutes or texts, you can always purchase another Extra.

If you have bought a SIM in the UK with the intention of travelling abroad and roaming, you must first activate the SIM in the UK for you to be allowed to add the roaming Extra on which you intend to apply. Your SIM cannot be activated abroad.

Vodafone adds 28 countries to its WorldTraveller roaming programme

Vodafone customers can now make calls from more world destinations on the cheap. The network has added 28 more destinations to its WorldTraveller scheme which will leave you without a massive bill while travelling abroad.

WorldTraveller lets you pay £5 to use your UK minutes, texts and data while abroad . That will mean no massive roaming fees that you’ll only find out about when you get home.

The new countries being added are: Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, Colombia, Costa Rica, Democratic Republic of Congo, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Guatemala, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Israel, Japan, Kenya, Lesotho, Mexico, Mozambique, Peru, Puerto Rico, Russia, Serbia, Singapore, Thailand, United Arab Emirates, Uruguay and the US Virgin Islands.

They’ll all be added from tomorrow.

To get WorldTraveller, text ADD to 40508 or call 5555 (+447836115555 from abroad) on your Vodafone handset. You can keep track of how many minutes, texts and how much data you’ve used using the Vodafone app.

Read more: Vodafone Smart Ultra 6 review

This is all well and good, but it’s not a patch on Three’s Feel At Home, which lets you use your minutes and texts as if you were still in the UK, as long as you’re calling or texting UK numbers.

But both schemes will soon be redundant, in the EU at least. As of summer 2017, EU roaming charges will be abolished , so you’ll pay the same for calls, texts and data as you would at home. And about time too. Roaming charges will face an interim cap from the end of April next year, with the full ban taking effect on June 15 2017. Better book a break to celebrate.

Vodafone launches WorldTraveller to eliminate international roaming costs

world traveller vodafone

After slashing roaming costs earlier this year, Vodafone is now rolling out a new deal that allows customers to continue using their plan while abroad for £5 a day.

Dubbed WorldTraveller, the deal lets you use our current allowance of texts, voice and data when you travel to the USA, India, Australia, New Zealand, Egypt, Ghana, Qatar and South Africa. Should you exceed your quota while roaming, you will be charged the standard overage UK rates.

The deal is valid on monthly as well as certain business plans, but does not extend to pay-as-you-go subscribers. If you're visiting countries within the EU, a EuroTraveller deal offers the same benefits for £2 a day.

Vodafone's move is part of a broader push by carriers to reduce roaming charges for customers traveling abroad. Earlier this year, Three rolled out a similar initiative called Feel At Home that allows customers to use their UK allowance in 16 international destinations for free.

Vodafone's WorldTraveller makes roaming cheaper in eight expensive countries

Vodafone's decided to do away with itemised roaming charges in eight far-away countries, today announcing that customers will be able to use their existing voice, text and data allowances in the USA, India, Australia, New Zealand, Egypt, Ghana, Qatar and South Africa for £5 per day. This WorldTraveller add-on complements Vodafone's existing EuroTraveller offering, which covers allowances in numerous European countries for £2 per day (£3 after August 31st). However, both bundles fall noticeably short of Three's Feel at Home service , which offers free roaming in 16 countries, although Vodafone does cast a wider net than its rival. To opt-in, pay monthly customers can dial 5555 when they touchdown in any supported country, and they'll only be charged for days they use the phone.

Vodafone World Traveller Avaliable in 8 Countries

  • by Archie Thomas
  • July 7, 2014 July 8, 2014

world traveller vodafone

It’s always a real pain in the rear when your phone blindsides you with a bucketload of hidden charges on your post-holiday bill. Mostly these are due to data roaming, which in layman’s terms is your phone operator charging you an extra tariff for using your phone abroad. As if you weren’t cash strapped enough after that long trip…

Most mobile phone network companies have sensed discontent amongst their more affluent customers, those who travel not just for leisure such business executives and other regular travellers who keep getting hit hard by these charges, and have implemented discounts and/or small perks to keep people happy.

Vodafone’s service, World Traveller, is one of those discount schemes. A continuation of Voda’s previous EuroTraveller service, World Traveller does away with itemised roaming charges is several countries, meaning you can use your already negotiated data, text and call allowances in the USA, India, Australia, New Zealand, Egypt, Ghana, Qatar and South Africa for just £5 per day, just by dialling 5555 when you arrive in your destination.

Vodafone’s cell coverage is still as comprehensive as it always has been, but with regards to travelling abroad, other networks, such as Three and their Feel At Home program, which completely removes additional charges in 16 countries worldwide including Australia, Austria, Denmark, Finland, France, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Israel, Italy, Macau, Norway the Republic of Ireland, Sri Lanka ,Sweden, Switzerland and The USA.

Other networks offering decreased data roaming charges include EE and O2, who both offer similar services within the Europe zone (Including Switzerland, but not including Turkey) for around £2 per day. They don’t yet offer a world traveller option.

It’s a tough choice, since Vodafone’s signal coverage and international service might just sway you in their direction, but on the other hand, the service from Three is cheaper.

You can check out the full story, terms and conditions, ins, out, bits, bobs and everything else you might need to know about World Traveller at Vodafone.co.uk. Also, if you’re interested in their Euro Traveller, or any other data roaming packages, you can check out the source page below.
