Once your limit is reached, roaming is blocked automatically — giving you peace of mind.

How much am I charged for data roaming usage when my included volume is used up?
If you run out of data, you will be redirected to a page offering additional data bundles, valid 365 days after activation.
See the Roaming Page.
Without any option or additional data bundle you may be charged up to 15.-/MB, depending on the travel zone you visit. Find out the details here on the Tariffs abroad page.
In this case, you will not be charged beyond the set limit. You can change these limits in my.salt.ch → Subscriptions → Configuration (private customers) or in mba.salt.ch (Business customers).
What other precautions can I take to avoid roaming data usage?
There are several ways to minimize your costs when traveling abroad:
- Use a subscription with data included (unlimited or not) abroad like Europe XXL.
- Use data packages.
- Reduce roaming costs by setting a limit. To do this, go directly to my.salt.ch → Subscriptions → Configuration (private customers) or mba.salt.ch (Business customers).
- Deactivate the use of data abroad either in your phone's settings or on the network (contact our customer care for this).
On the Samsung S7 for example, the “smart network switch” function must also be turned off. Some Android devices also feature a “data saver” function, which the user must activate.
To prevent any further risk, the following functions should also be deactivated:
Wi-Fi Assist (iPhone)
Download booster (Samsung).
Is there a charge for the Voicemail in Switzerland or abroad?
Receiving messages and calling your Voicemail with Salt domestic network is free.
Abroad:
- Receiving messages is charged twice, once as an incoming roaming call and once as an outgoing roaming call.
- Calling your Voicemail is charged as an outgoing roaming call.
In order to avoid these charges, we advise you to deactivate your voicemail before your trip.
Information on roaming options and data volumes is available on our roaming page.
