Avoid Roaming Fees

Traveling abroad is an exciting adventure, but unexpected roaming fees from your phone plan carrier can quickly turn it into a costly headache. At Sing Mobile, we’re here to help you stay connected without breaking the bank. Whether you’re exploring new cities, navigating with maps, or sharing your journey with loved ones, you can avoid those pesky roaming charges with a few simple steps. In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to keep your phone bill in check, including specific instructions for iPhone and Android users, and introduce the unbeatable benefits of our Prepaid eSIM plans.

Why Roaming Fees Happen

Roaming fees occur when your phone connects to a foreign network outside your home country carrier’s coverage area. These charges can pile up fast—whether you’re making calls, sending texts, or using data. The good news? You have options to avoid them entirely, and Sing Mobile makes it easier than ever.

For iPhone Users: Turn Off Roaming

If you’re an iPhone user, you can prevent roaming fees by adjusting a few settings before you travel. Here’s how:

  1. Disable Data Roaming: (Recommended)
    • Go to Settings > Cellular (or Mobile Data in some regions).
    • Tap Cellular Data Options (or Mobile Data Options).
    • Toggle Data Roaming to Off. This stops your iPhone from connecting to foreign networks for data.
  2. Use Airplane Mode with Wi-Fi:
    • Turn on Airplane Mode from the Control Center or Settings to disable all cellular connections.
    • Then, enable Wi-Fi in Settings > Wi-Fi to connect to local networks (like at hotels or cafes) without incurring charges.
  3. Monitor Your Usage:
    • Check your data usage under Settings > Cellular to ensure no apps are sneaking in background data.

By following these steps, your iPhone will stay off expensive roaming networks, keeping your bill in check.

For Android Users: Turn Off Roaming

Android users can also avoid roaming fees with a few quick tweaks. Here’s what to do:

  1. Turn Off Data Roaming: (Recommended)
    • Open Settings > Network & Internet > Mobile Network (steps may vary slightly by device).
    • Tap Data Roaming and switch it to Off. This prevents your phone from using data on foreign networks.
  2. Activate Airplane Mode:
    • Swipe down from the top of your screen to access the Quick Settings panel and tap Airplane Mode.
    • Afterward, turn on Wi-Fi via Settings > Network & Internet > Wi-Fi to use free or local networks.
  3. Limit Background Data:
    • Go to Settings > Network & Internet > Data Usage > Data Saver and turn it on to restrict apps from using data in the background.

With these settings, your Android device will steer clear of roaming charges while still letting you connect where it matters.
