Frequently asked questions

Sometimes, your device can connect to another country’s network. This is called inadvertent roaming and happens when you travel near an international border.

How can I prevent inadvertent or accidental roaming?

You should receive a message if your device connects to an international network. If you’ve had a message saying you’re on a new network, and it’s for a country you’re not in, take these steps to stop unexpected roaming charges:

Review your Vodafone Spend Manager limit in My Vodafone app or by calling 191
Set up a Data Roaming bar in the My Vodafone app or by calling 191
Manually set your network to the country you’re in. If you do this, you’ll need to manually change your network again each time you visit a new destination

Inadvertent or accidental roaming between Northern Ireland and Republic of Ireland

We know that our customers in Northern Ireland can sometimes connect accidentally to our network in the Republic of Ireland, so we’ve made roaming in the Republic of Ireland available at no extra cost for all customers (subject to our fair use limit of 25GB).

If you exceed this fair use limit through inadvertent roaming and get charged as a result, speak to our customer services team by calling 191 (+447836 191191 if you’re abroad).
