You can make calls, send SMS and surf the Internet abroad with your mobile subscription or prepaid credit. Activate data roaming for this on your device.
To view the tariffs for using your mobile phone in specific countries, select your destination and your current in the following tariff advisor.
You can check your current costs and purchase additional data packages for surfing abroad in the Cockpit. So you always keep your roaming costs under control.
Do you make regular calls abroad from Switzerland? The International Calls option lets you make unlimited calls.
If you stay near the Swiss border you mobile phone may automatically switch to a foreign mobile phone network. This can also happen some distance from the border, in the Lake Geneva area or in mountain regions (such as Jura, Alpstein, Grisons or Valais Alps). Since much lower radiation limits apply in Switzerland than in the EU, EU networks extend much further into Switzerland than vice versa. To avoid roaming costs, we recommend that you switch off the automatic network selection on your mobile phone.
Roaming is the process of a mobile phone switching from the mobile network of its own provider to a network of another operator. For example, when you use a foreign network with your mobile phone. This network provider charges Swisscom for the calls, SMS and Internet data made on their network.
You can enjoy the lowest-cost surfing by switching to an inOne (SME) mobile subscription. With the inOne (SME) mobile go and premium subscriptions, you can enjoy unlimited surfing within the EU/Western Europe.
Outside of Europe, we recommend data travel packages. You can buy 30-day packages in advance in Switzerland from the Swisscom Cockpit.
Unlimited Internet, telephony and SMS/MMS are included in the EU/Western Europe, USA and Canada. Once you have exceeded the 100 GB surfing allowance, speed is reduced to 128 kbit/s.
In countries within the World 1 zone, the surfing allowance is 10 GB per month. Unlimitedtelephony and SMS/MMS are included.
In all other countries, the monthly allowance is 1 GB surfing, 30 minutes’ telephony and 1,000 SMS. When you have used up your data allowance, we recommend purchasing a data package.
With inOne mobile basic and inOne mobile go, you can add the Travel Voice option. inOne mobile go can be supplemented with the Intercontinental pack. For roaming outside of the EU/Western Europe, the best option is to buy a roaming data package in the Swisscom Cockpit.
