For example, you are in Europe for 2 weeks it would cost $140. Which includes a total of 2.8 GB. This is a broadband plan where as for a phone plan for $10 a day you receive 100 MB of data, which means while you are in Europe for 2 weeks you pay $140 but only can use 1.4 GB. Any additional data usage, you will be charged $1 per MB. GB = 1,000 MB = $1,000!!!

My Prepaid Daily plans
On the My Prepaid Daily plans just recharge your data roaming from $10 and use your normal credit while you roam. Recharges from $30 on My Prepaid Daily have a six-month expiry.
Other Prepaid plans
If you’re on one of our other Prepaid mobile plans such as My Prepaid Long Expiry, international data roaming rates are charged out of your Credit/MyCredit balance only. Any bonus balances you have cannot be used for international roaming
In Europe Vodafone allow you to use your home allowance of data with an additional charge of $5 for data roaming fees. For example, if you are subscribed for their monthly bill paid plan of $60 this will allow you to use 22 GB. In order to use this data abroad, you must pay an additional $5 per day. If you exceed the 22 GB it will be an additional charge of $10 per GB. If you are using any other countries not covered by Vodafone, it will be an additional charge of $1 per MB. Which means 1 GB = $1,000!
