- (Most Expensive/Most Stress) Using your Aussie SIM card with international roaming. Using international roaming can cost you an arm and a leg and you will be putting your personal information at risk whilst abroad. (avoid using your Aussie SIM card with international roaming, especially if you're on a contract.)
- (Less Expensive/High Stress) Purchasing a local SIM card upon arrival of your trip. A good alternative to international roaming is to purchase a local SIM card upon arrival at your destination. However, this sometimes can be stressful, especially after a long haul flight with minimal rest. Overseas Telcos constantly change their offers, it's hard to know you're getting the best deal. Not to mention if you use your Aussie credit card to purchase, there will be hidden bank charges. On top of this, if something goes wrong, you won't get your money back!
