The Mistakes You Need To Stop Making When You Travel

Leaving Your Phone On

And we don’t just mean switching it off for dinner! (Although we hope you aren’t that person who forgets to turn their phone on silent in the main dining room!) No, what we mean is have you checked your data plan before you’ve gone away?If you’re with a network that lets you use your phone and data abroad for completely free then great! (and could you let us know who you’re with whilst you’re at it?) But all jokes aside, with most networks it definitely won’t be free for you to use your phone. If you’ve ever made the mistake of leaving your roaming data on whilst at sea, you’ll also know that networks charge an extortionate rate for picking up emails and social media updates at sea. The same goes for simple phone calls! Do yourself a favour and turn all roaming off and connect the Wi-Fi instead. Or better yet, truly relax and leave your phone at home!
