@georgyboy You need to buy a U.S. roaming add on to be able to

Adding sign into self serve go to plan add on tab and choose US add on that’s best for you

@georgyboy - how long are you going for ? Roaming addon last 15 was days, and are active as soon as you purchase them, but only work in USA.

See what ones are available here:

https://selfserve.publicmobile.ca/en/account/manage/shop/addons

OR, you can dial 611 to purchase Roaming addons also from your public mobile device.

IF you are going for longer than 15 days consider a local SIM card.

@georgyboy Also note when purchasing US add on they start immediately so only purchase before your head off for your trip . Also you want to be connect to T mobile and possible reboot your phone when in the US

@georgyboy , yes, there's no usage limit over the duration of the add-on. However, you should be warned that calling is only possible on the T-Mobile 2G network. Calls are rather iffy based on community feedback. I think if you were in a large metropolitan area, you are more likely to be okay.

For longer than 15 days consider a esim from AT&T or another US carrier that your phone supports
