Does the US Roaming Add-Ons work ok?

Planning a trip to the USA soon. Looking for reviews on how well the US Add-Ons were? Specifically the data.

Thanks.

HI @turtleTurtle

the roaming actually works quiet well

make sure your phone is enable Roaming data

then when you are in US, make sure the phone is connected to T-Mobile or AT&T. If it does not connect automatically or if one network does not work, manually connect to the other one

Voice can be different but depends on your phone, what phone you have?

HI @turtleTurtle

Samsung A51 does not have VoLTE. So, if you need voice, you will have to use T-Mobile network, hopefully the system will drop to 2G for voice. But many had trouble. If you cannot use voice, I would just download VoIP app TextNow and use it to make calls

Hmmm... ok. But in theory text and data should work ok? Don't really need the voice that much, as long as we can communicate with text or data.

HI @turtleTurtle

data and text works well. And as I said, you can manually connect to the other networks if one not going well
