U.S. Talk, Text and Data Bundle

Hi Everyone,

Just looking to make sure I'm prepared before it's too late. I'm going to the U.S. (New Orleans) for 5 days next week and I want to be able to receive calls and texts from Canada, along with having some data. So if I choose the 10 day "U.S. Talk, Text and Data Bundle", i'll be good to receive calls and texts from Canada right?

Thanks

Correct! Also be aware that the purchase of the US addon is a two step process. You will choose your addon you want and "pay for it" but this actually just puts money into your available funds account. You will then need to go in and re-purchase the addon and it will take the money from your available funds and activate the addon. The addon does go active from when you purchase it and is based on 10 CALENDAR days now 10-24 hour days based on the Eastern Time Zone. So if you were to purchase it 28 May it will expire 6 of June at 11:59 Eastern time.

ETA Change from Midnight to 11:59. Thanks @LEGO for pointing that out

you can load money to your account first, but don't activate the add on until you are ready for your trip.

@ShawnC13 Awesome thanks for the breakdown for purchasing these add-ons. I'll make sure to be aware of the timing.

Thanks
