Yes*




* if you've got minutes and data as part of your bundle and you're on Three.

What it means is that any calls, text, data will come out of your allowance as they would in the UK so if you have 200 mins then you can make 200 mins of calls as you would in the UK but go over that and you get charged (probably at a different rate to the UK).

If you're not sure phone three as they can tell you for sure.
