I'm currently using O2 UK Pay As You Go (prepaid):
- While in the UK I pay £7.50/month for internet with a data bolt-on (up to 500 MB I think - not sure as never exceeded the limit).
- While roaming in most of Europe (including at Disneyland Paris), I pay £1.99/day/25MB data.

Not sure how much charges for text messaging are, I use Whatsapp rather than standard text messaging when overseas to avoid text message charges!

I'm not sure about exact charges for other networks, but most UK networks seem to have fairly reasonable roaming charges for Europe at the moment... (I'm assuming that you're intending to get a UK line and then use roaming at Disneyland Paris? Correct me if I'm wrong!)

Yea that when I'm planning on doing If I use my Australia sim will cost me a lot

I wonder if there are any plans that have no extra date/Internet charges to us in the UK and France ?

Aussiesonholidays - just thought I would mention there is a whole Australian forum on the Dis too if you haven't already stumbled across it. It's on the "other lands" section.

Enjoy your holiday.

Thanks I have just found that but found it was a general page thought that this page would be better as my questions are only for dlp

In France you could maybe buy a Lebara sim as it could cost you less than using a UK one abroad.

There aren't many choices here as the 4 main operateurs even require you to have a French bank account attached to your PAYG

oh yes, definitely ask DLP specific questions here but you'll find the Aussie board very helpful for all of the wonderful castles. We are a very friendly bunch
