Could you share any tips? I don't want to spend any data to avoid extra charge and only need to receive the call.
Thanks.

You don't say which country you are going to and what stage of what contract you have.Newer contracts visiting Europe (?) are charged £3 (?) per day for roaming0

Most providers charge for receiving calls when roaming.

It could be VERY expensive!0

If you want to receive calls when abroad you could try a VOIP number. I have a home number with Voipfone and anywhere in the world where there is a data connection (via wi-fi or the mobile phone network) when someone rings my home number it rings on my mobile. Of course it uses a data connection so the use of foreign mobile networks for data will potentially be quite costly but you could set it to go to voicemail when you're away from wi-fi0

or perhaps leave a message to contact you by text/Sms. They are free to receive0
