Coverage in Mexico

Koombassi — Thu, 04 Nov 2021 20:48:17 GMT

Hello Community. We'll be in Mexico for one week and wondering if anyone has experience with Mexicosimcard.ca? Their basic $29.95 plan with 2gb more than meets our needs.
Thoughts, suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

From what I can see, Telcel is the provider for Mexicosicard.ca. And their starting plan shows at $29.95. I'll check more closely. Thanks @hairbag1

edit...also, you can downlod free voip app like TextNow. You can call and text most any Canada and US number for free using wifi. There's wifi in most resorts, hotels and cafes in MX...you might have to ask for their password.

They both seem to be "about" the same. Yours has advantage of able to be usable right away....even whilst in Canada. With mine, you have to go to retail outlet once you get there.

I don't understand why this stuff gets moved to the lounge. Pm does not offer roaming outside of the US so WHY is not worthy of the main forum? So whenever a customer asks for advice for services when in the rest of the world they are expected to look for it in the lounge? SO--STUPID!!
