Roaming Refresh

Orange is introducing new roaming rates for making and receiving calls across Europe. From 30 August it will cost 38p to make a call and 19p to receive a call, per minute. All other costs for using your phone abroad will stay the same. Orange has also refreshed the country zones for roaming (calling the UK from abroad) and they are no-longer aligned with IDD (international direct dialling/calling abroad from the UK). Please note that rates and countries for the Orange Business Zone and Orange Zone (Pay Monthly) are identical so customers pay the same regardless of consumer or business. Other key points are:

Orange Business Frequent Traveller - refreshed pricing and renamed to Business World Traveller.

IDD - there are no changes to pricing and until further notice, IDD will still use the old zones.

data roaming – there are no changes to pricing

Full pricing details are available on the Orange website.
