Going on holiday

valcarrot

Hi, I am off to South America over Christmas and new year and I am not sure if I need to buy a top up to phone and text home.. If so I have no idea how much to buy I think I will mainly be texting family.

• I would recommended you try to use free WiFi as this would be cheaper than using mobile data
