I Don’t like cricket
Hi all
First time outside Europe (Summer 2019) since Covid and travelling to Barbados at the end of the month.
I’m a virgin Mobile to O2 customer, (2 phones) and maybe I dreamt this but I’m sure virgin didn’t charge me extra to use outside Europe but o2 want £6 per day.
I still pay virgin for my handsets but having moved in the interim virgin aren’t available so I’m not a volt customer.
Is £6 per day best value or should I think about Airalo?
One handset belongs to a 22 year old so will be on their socials and maps etc a lot. Whilst I need to stay connected due to elderly parents in care.
Many thanks for any insights

I hadn't heard of Airolo before, might be interesting
Or local SIM cards, might have eSIM options
