US Roaming

jackson5240 — Wed, 05 Jan 2022 14:26:22 GMT

Hi Community

I am going to the US in a month. My current plan has 2 G Data, unlimited international calling, unlimited texting.

My question is what should I purchase as an add on. I'd like to use data, talk and text. Do I select the $20.00 250mb Data, unlimited talk and text package?

Thanks

Chris

The bundle would suit your needs. Keep in mind that the roaming add-on is valid 10 days from purchase. Make sure you purchase and add it to your account.

Hey Chris, that is the package I get when I go to the states. It isn't a ton of data but wifi is pretty much all over the place now.

Thats the one I get usually aswell, I typically download google maps so I can use offline. And then switch data on off as needed.

So to be clear, the 2G of data that I normaly have on a monthly plan here in Canada will not be valid in the US?

I will only have 250mb of data not 2.25G of data. Sorry for newb type of question.

@jackson5240 that is correct unless you purchased the plan that was offered last summer that was a Canada/US plan that is the only plan that would work in both countries without the add-on
