New EE Max plans offer free EU roaming and BT Sport

EE has just launched its new Max plans as part of its handset contract refresh, which offers consumers a couple of new bonuses on top of their regular data allowance and unlimited texts and minutes.

Perhaps the most enticing part about the new EE Max plans is a free EU data roaming allowance when you take your phone abroad, called “Roam like home”. Customers can continue to send texts and make calls as they like while in Europe at no extra charge. However, regardless of your UK data allowance, customers are capped at just 500MB of free data while roaming in the EU. It’s worth noting that EE isn’t the only UK carrier to offer this type of deal. Three’s Feel At Home is perhaps the most popular alternative right now.

In addition to a better roaming deal, EE Max plans also grant customers free access to BT Sport for the length of their contact, which is usually 2 years. BT Sport can be streamed online and offers up coverage from football to MotoGP and baseball.

These Max plans aren’t the cheapest contracts around through. Prices start at £25.99 per month for just 3GB of data and increases up to at least £45.99 per month for two years for 40GB of data, depending on your handset. The table below should help you get your head around the new price plans.
