Roaming in Japan
Hello, I wanted to check if anyone has been able to use their Smarty plan whilst travelling in Japan (Tokyo and Kyoto)? Were you able to use your data as normal, or was there anything you needed to a...
Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings!! You cannot use your normal UK smarty plan in Japan.
While you can still use it in the EU countries (subject to a 12Gb data limit), you will need to add credit to your account to pay for use while in Japan.
This is explained in the Price Guide: https://cdn.smarty.co.uk/files/SMARTY-Price-Guide.pdf
Data will cost £1 per Mb and calls £2.50 per minute - ouch!! Probably best to look at buying a Japanese sim for use while there. I did that a few years ago and it worked well - sorry I cannot recall exact details of the brand, but it was fairly straightforward . Just ask that helpful Mr Google and you should see a lot of options.
