Travel Republic bids to combat rising mobile roaming fees

Travel Republic is offering data packages designed to keep mobile phone costs down for holidaymakers travelling abroad. 

The OTA is working with eSIM provider Simtex to help combat rising mobile phone roaming charges for travellers.

The service provides internet connection via roaming data without the need for Sim card changes.

Costs vary from country to country with a three-day package in the US priced from £4 (1GB) and £12 for 14 days (3GB). Three days in Turkey is £5 (1GB) and 14 days (3GB) is £12.

Travel Republic managing director Antonio Fellino said: “With the cost of living weighing down heavily on everybody’s minds, we are taking active steps to make sure our customers get the best deals and access to the best offers when they travel with us.

“The deal we have secured with Simtex also provides an extra 10% off their rates to our customers until the end of September and removes the hassle and worry away for holidaymakers where roaming charges are concerned.

“The last thing our customers want when they take a well-deserved holiday is the worry of using their mobile phone.

“We are also working on offering our customers lots of further deals going forward to make their holidays more affordable in the current climate.”
