Avoid 1&1 roaming fees

Germany

1&1's published rest-of-world roaming rate is €2.49 per minute — the same as o2, whose network it runs on. There's no day pass to soften it for calls outside the EU. QuikRing calls the same number from about $0.02/min over Wi-Fi.

The daily pass bill shock trap

1&1 runs on Telefónica's network, and its rest-of-world rate matches o2's: €2.49/min in Weltzone 4, which covers most non-EU destinations. Weltzone 2 (Switzerland, UK and neighbours) is far cheaper at €0.59/min.

Daily pass: No day pass for calls outside the EU

How to avoid the daily fee

Leave data roaming off, connect to Wi-Fi wherever you're staying, and call through QuikRing in your browser instead of your 1&1 SIM.

Standard out-of-plan rate: €0.59 - €2.49 per minute (Weltzone 2 to Weltzone 4, rest of world)

Frequently asked questions

Why does 1&1 charge the same roaming rate as o2?

1&1 Mobilfunk runs on Telefónica Deutschland's (o2) network, so its non-EU roaming zones and per-minute rates match o2's published price list almost exactly.
