hi gang, I work for a Canadian airline and am often in the Caribbean. Does public mobile work there and does anyone know of a plan that covers Canada, US Caribbean and Mexico? Thanks

HI @Dc9r2757

sorry, PM only has roaming in US , not other countries.

So, best to use Travel esim as you likely fly a lot to many places

Public Mobile will only work in Canada or US with a roaming add-on. For use anywhere else you should get a sim and a cheap local plan.

@Dc9r2757 - You cannot get roaming packages for international use, only the States is where Public Mobile has international roaming.

@Dc9r2757 Sorry PM only has roaming in the US . Your best to get local pre paid SIM card in Mexico for your visit

if you have wifi in those areas, you could just download free voip app such as TextNow. With it, you can send / rec free calls /texts to most Cdn or US numbers...fro free using the local wifi or separately purchased local data.

Telus offers plans that include the US and Mexico, but PM doesn't even have service behind the US. You could also consider Freedom Mobile.

But if you only need data (no phone or text), a travel esim from Airalo or Ubigi might make sense.
