EE splits roaming into two sets of packs. In the EU zone, pay monthly handset and SIM plans started on or after 7 July 2021 that do not include EU roaming pay a Daily EU Charge, which unlocks the UK plan allowance for one UK calendar day. Essentials Plus, All Rounder and Full Works plans include EU roaming. Full Works plans also include Rest of World Zone 1 at no extra cost.
Instead of the daily charge, EE sells a Weekly EU Roaming Pass (168 hours from purchase) and a 15-day EU Pass (360 hours from purchase). Neither pass is available on Safer SIM plans. Outside Europe, EE groups destinations into Rest of World zones. Roaming Passes for Zone 1 and Zone 2 give the UK plan allowance for 24 hours, 7 days or 15 days from purchase. Zone 3 and Zone 4 have a single 24-hour pass each.
The Daily EU Charge applies per UK calendar day of use in the EE Europe zone. The weekly and 15-day EU passes run from the moment of purchase, at 168 and 360 hours. Outside the EU zone, data needs a Roaming Pass.
The Zone 3 pass gives 500MB of data plus unlimited minutes and texts for 24 hours and can be bought again when used up; there is no weekly pass for Zone 3. The Zone 4 pass gives 10MB of data for 24 hours and can be bought again when used up. The Daily EU Charge rises each year with EE's annual out-of-bundle price increase on 31 March.
A Slashtel prepaid data-only eSIM covers 190+ countries and carries mobile data only. The home SIM stays in the phone for calls, texts and bank codes. The eSIM connects to local networks with automatic network selection, is installed by QR code before the trip and switched on when you land. It has no phone number, so calls and texts stay on the home SIM or go over internet apps.
This pairing suits travellers on an EE plan that pays the Daily EU Charge, or anyone heading outside the EU zone where data needs a Roaming Pass. Check the table on this page for the destinations where the eSIM costs less than the EE pack for the same trip. For a side-by-side view of the two approaches, see eSIM vs roaming compared, and for another UK operator's packs, see Three roaming.
