What is Data Roaming?
Data roaming refers to the use of mobile data services when you are outside of your mobile network operator’s coverage area. When you are abroad or in another area not covered by your mobile network operator, your phone will automatically connect to a local network and use its data services. This allows you to continue using internet and data services, such as email and social media, while you are traveling. Data roaming can be expensive, as you may be charged additional fees by your mobile network operator or the local network provider for using their data services. Because of this, it is important to check with your mobile network operator to understand the costs associated with data roaming and to consider turning off data roaming when you are traveling to avoid unexpected charges on your phone bill.
