Cellular in other countries

[parkay123]

I have a basic 10 GB plan.  I’m nervous of accidentally turning on my cellular while I travel.   When  I travel to Europe, if I put my cellular on a previous eSIM card that is no longer working, will this stop Public Mobile from charging me?  Will I still get SMS messages if I leave my Canadian SIM card in my phone?  Any  advice would be appreciated. Thank you

HI @parkay123 

Yes, you are correct.  Since PM does not have roaming in Europe, leaving mobile data and Wifi on would not turn on any Public Mobile service.  So, no extra charges

Public mobile does not offer international roaming (besides Mexico and USA).  You will not be able to receive SMS text (ie. from Banks, etc)  with PM SIM card.  No extra surprise charges with Public mobile. 

Most PM customers will get a travel eSIM or domestic SIM card while traveling.  The hassles is that you are unable to use PM Canadian number.

you'll never be charged later for something as Public Mobile is a prepaid service. Once you leave Canada, your Public Mobile service will just stop until you return home.
