Coverage in Mexico?

[twocs]

I'm going to be traveling to Cancun this weekend and would like to purchase an add-on that would support data usage of my phone. Is there an add-on that public mobile offers that could serve this purpose? I only see coverage in US.. anyon else have luck with international coverage outside of the US?

Same here. We switched back to PM down in Los Barriles, BCS this winter after finding out that PM now offers coverage in Mexico. It worked OK in LB, but nowhere else north of there. We’re now in San Felipé and we’ve had no cell service since leaving LB. We should have stayed with TelCel!

which network you connected to?  did you test both AT&T and Telcel?

also, there are other carriers partnered with PM (except I don't know which ones), so, you can manually try others

EXTREMELY disapointed with data coverage.... Cancun/Tulum - Nothing. Cabo San Lucas - average CDMX. - bad. Acapulco - bad...

Ola from DR! I'm successfully using Mighty Text for texting on my laptop. My PM phone is safely stored in an old phone in my bedroom at home. Fongo works great for calling canada! Here in Punta Cana, the Wifi is ~ 22 Mbs up and down and Netflix and Hockeytv.com are seemless. Better than the tv service here actually!

In Cancun two years ago, wifi was only available in the lobby for free. Here at Memories Splash and the Royalton, the entire resort tis free for guests. It's awesome!

@twocs  Try mexicosimcard.ca

Unfortunately no add-ons for Mexico. The only thing you can do is either buy a local sim card or a travel sim like Surfroam (www.surfroam.com) or MTX Connect (www.mtxc.eu)

You could purchase a local sim or use Gigsky.

Three isn't any roaming add-ons for Mexico, only the US.  If you want any service you would need to purchase a sim and service from a Mexican provider.

@twocs, Public Mobile does not offer any roaming options for Mexico, only US.  You will need to purchase a local service or use WiFi and and a chat app.  For phone calls back to Canada, the hangouts app works well.  Fongo is another option.

@twocs there is no PM add on for Mexican coverage. You could try WiFi and such apps like WhatsApp .
