Internet dongle

I want to purchase an internet dongle to use on my Mac laptop in Portugal for a couple of weeks.  Can I use it abroad on PAYG or do I need to take out a contract?

Hi sofuse,

 

Thanks for your post here.

 

I'm afraid our Pay as you go dongles will not work abroad. You'll need to take out a pay monthly agreement to use one of them abroad.

 

Head over here to find out more regarding the range that we do :-

 

The 30 day and 18 month plans are the ones you'll need.

 

USB Modems

 

Thanks

Thanks for you reply, Wayne.  

 

I know there is a Vodafone store near where I'll be staying in Portugal.  Would it be easier and cheaper if I puchased a PAYG dongle when I'm there?

Hi sofuse,

 

Thanks for your reply. If you know where a Vodafone Store is near to where you're staying, then it's definitely worth purchasing a PAYG modem there as you'll be paying the standard rate for Portugal instead of the international rate for the UK. Details can be found here: Vodafone Portugal PAYG Modem.

Re: Internet dongle

I'll purchase one when I'm there then.

Thanks for all your help.
