Top Deal Mobiles - Too Good to be True?
MSE's top deals seem too good to be true, for example a brand new Samsung Galaxy S24 is several hundred pounds cheaper than the major retailers/providers despite, apparently, like for like specifications.

Talkmobile roaming in the EU
When Talkmobile say they offer free roaming in the EU, does that include free calls/text to local numbers in EU countries? Or can you only call/text UK numbers while in a EU country? I have been trying to contact them but I can't, and all their examples just so happen to refer to calling/texting UK numbers.
