Looking for some advice.
Off to England, Ireland and France in a week.
Partner has a Samsung S6 and will be getting new SIM from travel insurance company so can use in Ireland, England and France. Data and call costs are mega cheaper than Roaming from 2 degrees.
I am think of getting myself a burner phone from Warehouse Stationary so I have txt and phone (in case we get separated). They have an 3G 2 degrees Actel for $19. Apparently costs $30 to get unlocked. So for $49 dollars I get an unlocked phone.
Questions
1 I plan to buy a SIM in the UK and Ireland and use in the Actel phone. Would that work? Forget France as only there for a short period.
2 Could buy another SIM from the insurance people- Cover-More but may not have time
3 Warehouse Person said it would be better to buy a burner from each country (UK and Ireland and get a local SIM as would guarantee connectivity in the country.
Any thoughts appreciated
