PM has no service in UK. You'll need to pick up a local plan over there or use wifi.

you can keep your device in canada and do Call Forwarding,

Call Forwarding (publicmobile.ca)

anywhere has wifi free,

i suggest you to use a app Textme or Talkatone, and you will getting new canadian number for Free from that app,

• Unlimited Call \ SMS \ MMS a Free USA/Canada.

Here link for app Talkatone.

Here link for app Text Me.

enjoy your trip....

@meganlouise : The forwarding idea is only for talk and text. You asked about data.

Unfortunately, PM only offers roaming in the US. You would need to purchase a local sim.

get local prepaid sim instead.. you can easily get it everywhere in UK.. I used Lebara before. Or you can get "3" as well.

Some places in Canada sell those overseas SIMs as well if you want to buy it ahead, but of course it is cheaper to get it in UK.
