Three roaming by destination

Pick your destination

How to avoid Three roaming charges

  1. Before you fly, install a travel eSIM at home on Wi-Fi.
  2. On landing, set mobile data to the eSIM and turn on data roaming for the eSIM only.
  3. Turn data roaming off for your Three SIM so background data doesn’t start a charge. You can still receive calls and texts.

Questions UK travellers ask

How much does Three charge for roaming?

Three charges by zone: £2.75 a day in Go Roam in Europe, and £8 a day in Go Roam Around the World and Around the World Extra, for plans from 18 December 2025. Multi-day Go Roam passes cost less per day. It unlocks your UK allowance, up to 12 GB.

Is a travel eSIM cheaper than Three roaming?

It depends on where you go and for how long. The table above shows a week in each destination, using Three’s lowest published option and a Graba SIM plan of about 0.7 GB a day. Three’s price also includes calls and texts.

Can I keep my Three number while using an eSIM?

Yes. Keep your Three SIM in your phone for calls and texts, turn data roaming off for it, and use the eSIM for data.

What if something goes wrong?

Live chat in the Graba SIM app is open 24/7. Email and contact-form requests are answered Monday to Friday.
