US talk and text addons

[susellin]

I've noticed that the US addons were 10 days (a few months ago) and now are 15 days.  Is 15 days now the only option?  Also, can data be used with the 15 day talk and text roaming plan, or does data require a separate roaming fee?

The LG would likely be fine being an older phone. For the iphone, can you find the list of voice and talk settings and see if 2G shows. This might depend on the version of ios. If not then there's a chance it won't work for talk. You'd need to try it and see what happens. Please report back one way or the other.

@susellin  No problem , hope they enjoy there trip 🙂

@susellin  The iPhone 11 will support 2G and I’m quite sure the lg phone will too just need to know  exact lg model to be certain , but I’m pretty sure it does

@susellin Yes, 15 days is the only option I see now in the addons.

It's actually for my husband and daughter.  She has an iphone 11 and he has an old LG.

Which model is it? Most phones can connect to 2g.

@susellin  Your phone should drop down to it automatically, but you would find that in phone setting under network .. also note your phone in the US to work needs to be connected to T mobile to work

@susellin  No , but your regular data won’t work in the US that just for use in Canada 

[susellin]

Ok, I wasn't sure if that meant buying extra data.  So to be clear, if I use my current data I will incur extra charges?

[dust2dust]

Your base plan data will not work in the states. You would need the roaming data.

Yes, only 15 days. Be aware that roaming talk is problematic these days. And your phone needs to be able to drop down to 2G to work as well.

@susellin  Yes they just recently changed to 15 day  add ons , you need to buy data talk text US roaming if you want data while in the US
