US addons

[susellin]

I bought a US text roaming addon. Can I use my public mobile data or do I need to purchase US roaming data as well?

You need purchase USA data addon as well.

@susellin...

your regular plan talk/text/data will only work whilst in Canada. If you're going to USA, you'd need to get one of the 10 Day US Roaming add-ons for use while in USA.

If you're going for more than 10 days, consider getting a US sim and a cheap talk/text/data plan.

Alternative is to make use of free US wifi in most restaurants, cafe's and resorts....Walmart even has free wifi there.

If you are needing data while you're physically in the USA, you'll need a US data roaming add-on.

Just be sure only to use any type of ROAMING addons when in the USA. And once they are purchased is when the time starts ticking - ROAMING addons last 10 days only.

Other addons are different, like the USA 1000 minutes calling addon, (made while YOU are anywhere in Canada).

These types of addons will stay on your account until fully consumed.

You'll need to purchase a roaming add-on that includes data (unless you have an old $60 plan that incldued U.S. roaming data).
