avoid uncontrolled data usage:
Certain phones may continue to automatically retrieve information (e.g. e-mails, updates for applications, etc) while you use the phone abroad.

When your phone does this, it is using data roaming and you will incur charges. To avoid this, it is important that you switch off these features.

To do so, please check your handset manual.
