Tesco Mobile has extended its free roaming in a boost for customers who are heading abroad.

The mobile network allows for free roaming – including UK texts, calls and data – across 48 EU destinations. This was due to come to an end in 2026, but Tesco Mobile has now extended its roaming beyond next year.

You can find a full list of destinations where this applies below. Mobile firms were previously banned from charging extra fees to use your UK allowance – calls, texts and data – while holidaying in the EU. This now no longer applies after Brexit.

Laura Joseph, Chief Customer Officer at Tesco Mobile, said: “We know how important it is for families to stay connected—whether you’re sharing holiday snaps, checking in with loved ones, or finding your way around a new city.

“That’s why we’re proud to extend our roaming offer, giving customers the freedom to use their UK data, minutes, and texts across 48 destinations in the EU and beyond, at no extra cost. With no setup, no hidden fees, and no stress, it’s one less thing to worry about when you’re away.”
