Welcome to the forum.

OK. I've moved this to the Beginners Questions which is fairly general.
What you need to do is get a Roaming SIM such as SimForTravel. There are a few on the market but get one who uses either Jersey or

interesting that they have a 21Mb network, but realistically you would only
