Is there an option to enable Public Mobile line to roam when traveling particularly in countries in Southern Africa?

PM not offer Roaming in Africa,

 

Buying a Sim Card in South Africa

\/

South Africa SIM, from $5

 

if like to Download the TextNow App

and you get free number from that app,to Call & SMS for free, used by Wi-Fi.

Most major airports throughout the world have a kiosk that sell sim cards, cell plans and even throw-away telephones. When you get to your destination, have a look at the airport before leaving on your adventure.

No, there is no option to have service in Africa with PM plans.

HI @mrumisha   No, no roaming option there

 

You will have to buy  local data prepaid sim, then use  VoIP app like TextNow or Fongo for voice and text.
