It's of no use if you are staying put in Ireland.<BR />If he buys the EU calls add on then he won't be charged anything from his credit balance to receive calls. If not then he will need cash credit to pay for these and maybe other services.<BR /><BR />Hope this helps.</P> Tue, 16 Dec 2014 11:31:20 GMT https://community.48.ie/t5/Other-Help/Roaming/m-p/32457#M10838 dalyer 2014-12-16T11:31:20Z
