Blocking Smarty abroad

Hi. 

I’m going abroad and have an eSIM to use. 

i want to ensure I don’t incur any extra charges from Smarty. Is the best easy to turn off the Smarty sim and just have the eSIM on?

 

 Thanks

    DylanJo_4228952​ If you don't have out of plan add-on balance, you wont be charged anything extra. There is no spend limit settings because of that.

    You can turn off data roaming in your settings to be on the safe side, so you can still receive SMS messages, like verification codes. It is free to receive SMS messages while roaming in any country

    Just so you know, roaming in the EU includes unlimited calls & texts, and 12GB free out of your monthly plan. Details here: Travelling in the EU | SMARTY.
