General
In most inclusive countries, you will have the ability to connect to multiple networks. This will depend on the network’s roaming agreements at the time. Please get in touch with the Customer Support Team for further advice on specific networks for the country you’re visiting.
You will need to enable Data Roaming to access data. If after turning Data Roaming on, and you still cannot access data, please amend your APNs to the APNs provided on activation.
4G Calling is enabled on your number and can be used whilst roaming to improve the call quality.
We add 5G as default, so you will be able to use 5G where available. However, please note 5G is not always guaranteed, as its availability relies on the roaming agreements between mobile network operators.
Wi-Fi Calling is enabled on your number, however the use of Wi-Fi Calling whilst roaming is prohibited and is not supported. However, in certain circumstances it may be possible to enable Wi-Fi Calling whilst abroad and where used additional charges may apply.
Contact the Customer Support Team as soon as you can so they can place a temporary bar on your SIM to prevent any unsolicited usage. They will also help get a replacement SIM out to you ASAP. A replacement SIM will be free of charge, but there may be a cost to cover the delivery to you.
To have full control of what networks your SIM can connect to, go into manual network settings on your phone and manually select the network you would like to use. You will need to remember to change this setting when leaving the country, by either switching it back to automatic, or manually selecting a network you would like to use at your next destination.

Billing & Charges
The billing cycles runs from the 1st to the end of the month, so all your allowances will refresh at the start of the month.
You will be charged £.050 per minute by default. Or contact the Customer Support Team to add another 100 Minute Worldwide Bundle.
Invoices are sent on or around the 12th of the month.
You will receive your invoice via email. The day after you receive your invoice it will be loaded into your Billing Portal.
Invoices cover line rentals for the current month and usage for the previous month. For example, invoice dated 1st March is sent on or around the 12th March. This invoice will contain March’s line and February’s usage.
If your SIM was activated after our invoices were sent, your first invoice will have the line rentals for the remainder of the month, plus the full month for the following month. All dates and breakdown of the costs are on the CLI Charge Summary page of the invoice.
The small deposit acts as a form of insurance for us, in the case your invoices are not paid in time. If you fulfil your payment obligations promptly, the deposit will not be forfeited, and when you decide to cancel the contract, it will either be refunded to you on request or used to offset the final payment.
We will use your credit / debit card details which we have securely stored in our payment system to automatically take the on the 15th of every month.
Our Accounts Team follow a simple process to ensure your account is kept up to date. Please see below for the schedule.
15th-18th of the month – We will attempt to take payment for your crew plan on two separate occasions. The second attempt will be made as we acknowledge that you may need to authorise the payment with your bank or move funds into the correct account.
19th-22nd – If we have still been unable to take payment at this stage then you will receive a Sage pay link via email from our accounts team, which you can simply click and pay your overdue balance.
On or around 25th – You will receive a final reminder via SMS.
Last working day of month – If we have still not received payment your line will be suspended.
Your mobile plan will pro-rata. Pro-rata is calculated by taking the tariff cost, data amount in GB or number of minutes, and dividing it by the total number of days in the month and then multiplying it by the number of days the tariff is pro-rated for.
We will give you log ins to a Billing Portal where you can view the traffic on your SIM within the month, and previous months. However, please note that this usage can be a few days behind as it’s only loaded into the system once it has been processed and then provided by the network.
As default, we add £50 Bill Limits onto Crew connections. This is to protect you from high roaming costs, which can get expensive in unsupported countries. You will receive a notification when/if you hit the limit via an email outlining your usage. If the bill limit is triggered, your line will be temporarily barred to prevent any further charges.
At this stage, a member of our team will be in touch to consult how you wish to move forward. If you keep the bars in place, all charges over £50 will be nullified, and the bars will automatically lift next billing cycle, the 1st of the next month. You also have the option to lift the bill limit to reinstate the service and all charges would be liable. The connection would then be unprotected for the rest of the month. It takes up to 24 hours for these bars to lift.
Before we activate your SIM we will ask you to confirm what you would like to set your Bill Limit to. We strongly recommend that the threshold is not set any lower than £50, as removing the bars if the Bill Limit is hit can take a full 24 hours and we have no ability to speed up this process.
You will receive email and SMS alerts (to your new +44 UK number), when you have accrued £15 and £50 of spend, plus when 50%, 75%, 90% and 100% of the inclusive data and or 100 worldwide minutes.
