Introducing Go Roam Around the World Extra

[JonathanB]

Hi everyone,

Great news! We’ve added 92 new destinations to Go Roam – with over 160 in total - from beautiful Thailand to vibrant Mexico. 

And with Go Roam Around the World Extra, you can explore while accessing your plan’s data, minutes, and texts with our inclusive daily roaming passes.*

No inclusive passes? No problem. When visiting a Go Roam Around the World Extra destination, you can unlock your plan’s data, minutes, and texts for £7 for 24hrs* or buy a 3, 7, or 14 day Go Roam Around the World Extra Pass before you travel for even better savings. You can check the rates for any roaming destination before you travel on our Roaming Support page. And if it’s time to renew your plan, why not take advantage of our Value and Complete plans which are bundled with up to 56 days of inclusive Roaming passes, as well as other perks such as Paramount+, extended warranty, free screen repairs and more!

We hope that adding more destinations than ever before to Go Roam is a welcome change. Please let us know in your replies what you think of this new expansion to our Go Roam services, and where you’ll be off to this summer? Read more on the Three blog.

It's £7 a day to use your UK allowances in Canada.

Or, if you don't need to call or text, then a Data Passport is available for £5 a day, with unlimited data

• I thought it was a go roam destination. I have advanced plan which includes go roam.

Can I ask why it's Pay Monthly only? 

[leemeluk]

I've been with three since 2015, and was on a 3-2-1 PAYG plan, but was turned over to a PAYG 12GB Data at some point, which then turned over to a 15 GB Data auto renew.
I didn't even know about the changes until I went to Japan, and it was cheaper to buy a local SIM rather try anything with Three, and a planned trip to Thailand has me running for a local SIM. The comms from Three have been very hit and miss, as I do struggle to understand some of the changes due to a traumatic brain injury. 
Changes like this need to run past the Plain English Campaign.

Hi @leemeluk,

I'm sorry for any confusion about our Roaming offers, we appreciate this can be a complex subject. Go Roam Around The World Extra is a Pay Monthly offer, and we've taken steps to make this clear on this article and any relevant pages on the Three website.

Neither Japan or Thailand have ever been covered for PAYG Go Roam, but if you have a look on our Roaming Support page, you can check all the relevant rates for any destination.

We're also dedicated to providing support for any customers with vulnerabilities or accessibility needs. If you'd like further support, please contact our Customer Wellness Team by your preferred method using their contact options listed here.

Thanks,
Jonathan

Hi my contract is pre 2021 but includes go roam. Will that cover me for India. The website and app really aren’t easy to use to find this info. Not sure why it doesn’t just display based on phone number. Thx

I was with Vodafone for 10 years EE FOR 3 years and now moved to three for this benefit!! Hope it stays like this and doesn’t get removed it’s the only reason I joined three and will stay as they keep this roaming!!

Just make it clear 2£ a day just gives you right to use your phone abroad minutes and texts AND JUST  12GB DATA A MONTH if your country listed in Go Roam. If not she maybe listed in Go Roam extra then it's 7£ a day just to get same as 2£ in other countries. You still have to purchase 5£ data plan if you go above 12G a MONTH so that's 12£ a day. Abroad you just getting 12G a MONTH free whith your allowance
