MSE UK only sim deals

Hi MSE
Would you mind separating the Uk Sim only deals from the Europe Roaming Sims in Best Buys.
Almost got one in error it would have been an expensive mistake going forward.
I know it tells you but is your doing a fast scan you could get caught out.

Eg
Best Sim only dealsUp to 2GB
iD Mobile: 1GB, 500 mins: £5/mth
Smarty: 2GB, unltd mins: '£6.67/mth'

4GB to 10GB
iD Mobile: 4GB, 500 mins: £8/mth
Vodafone: 8GB, unltd mins: £10/mth
iD Mobile: 10GB, 300 mins: £10/mth

20GB to 100GB
Vodafone: 20GB, unltd mins: '£13.34/mth'
Virgin Mobile: 45GB, 5,000 mins: £18/mth

As you can see you have drill in to see Uk only

Cheers

    Virtually all SIMs have European roaming included at the same UK tariff, according to EU regulations (Vodafone's basic plan being the only one I know that's limited to UK) - so what would the 'expensive mistake' consist of..?

    It would consist of someone taking out a contract without bothering to read the terms and then blaming everybody else but the guilty party.

    A very common disease on here.

    How is it expensive - the point is it doesn't run up a bill when roaming as it's included. Plus, you only need to turn data off when abroad to avoid using any roaming data?
