Can I use mobile data outside the EU?

At Mobile Vikings we block mobile data outside the EU to avoid unexpectedly high costs. This will avoid you, as a Viking, to unexpectedly receive a huge invoice/payment invitation for your subscription, or to instantly use all of your calling credit unaware. Outside the EU, mobile data in certain countries can cost, for example, € 13/MB. Check the rates per country on our roaming page.

Why is mobile data blocked outside the EU?

With a subscription, you immediately reach your maximum amount outside your bundle, which is by default set at €10. If this happens, you will not only be unpleasantly surprised upon receiving your next invoice/payment invitation, you won’t be able to surf, make/receive calls or send/receive texts either. When you reach your maximum out-of-bundle amount, we're obliged to stop all your services. 

With a prepaid SIM card, you use your calling credit to surf mobile outside the EU, and that too will exhaust instantly.

How can I continue surfing outside the EU?

1. Use local Wi-Fi as much as possible while on location.
2. Activate a Global Data Pass: you will be able to use mobile data in many countries outside the European Union. You can easily set a reminder through our website to purchase your Global Data Pass.
3. Use a local SIM card, usually you will find those at airports.
