I am traveling to the uk in the fall.
I'd like to stay online for 10 days, but i have no experience with simcards outside the eu.
Does someone have advice on what to get?

@newhinton In the UK I can use my T-Mobile SIM card on EU roaming conditions. So no change. As far as I know it’s the same for the most German providers. If you want an UK SIM card check out Giffgaff (https://www.giffgaff.com/) I have a SIM card from them and it’s a good network.

@AlienJay Oof, the data plans are incredibly cheap

Do i need to know anything about fee's, registration requirements or contract lengths with the card you suggested?
I'll check with my provider if they still treat the uk like eu-roaming, thanks for the advice.

@newhinton It’s a prepaid plan. No contract. I ordered my SIM card directly as I can use UK addresses. But usually you can get a Giffgaff SIM card at Sainsbury’s, Tesco or ASDA for a little fee.
I’m not sure if they offer eSIMs in the meantime. Last time when I checked it was planned.
