Roaing abroad ?
Simple question for someone I think but just wanted to clarify something.
Going to France next week for 3 days and my wife and I are both on Virgin mobile monthly contracts , I dont want to use the internet (other than in hotel/cafe wi-fi) but wondered whether if we switched Data Roaming off on our phones , could we still receive and send calls and texts ?
Last time I went abroad I didnt have a smartphone (just basic mobile phone).
Thnaks in advance for any replies :money:
