Short answer. No.
Only 3 in the UK (afaik) will allow free roaming from Ireland back to the UK.0 -
Tesco Roaming mobile charges in Ireland are
18p a minute to make a call
only 4p to receive
So get the Uk mobile caller to ring you back, sometimes not practical but much cheaper0 -
Sainsburys and some EE plans offer free roaming in the ROIThis is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0

Are you sure its really free?
Do you not have to be on an extra plan i.e. EE extra
Anyway I was with EE and had terrible & expensive service. Now with Tesco (same as the original poster) and staying there!

But they are more expensive than a basic Tesco plan!
So its 4p a minute to receive a call whilst roaming on Tesco. Still cheaper than EE crap extras! Unless you are living in Ireland full time?0
