When does a 10 day roaming package expire?

Telus’ Roam like Home option expires at midnight so I was wondering if PM also expires at midnight on the 10th day?  For example, if I purchase a 10 day roaming package on Sept 1 at 8 pm the does the package expire at midnight on the 10th or 8 pm on the 11th?

And further, don't buy multiple overlapping talk parts while one is active in its 10 days.

And be very aware of problematic talk in the states. The best you can hope for is spotty coverage of T-Mobile's old 2G network. There are still some 3G services here and there but they are being shut down.

If you buy data then turn on data roaming. If your networks are not set to automatic then you'll need to manually connect to either AT&T or T-Mobile. But preferably T-Mobile for talk. Either should work fine for text and data.

Adding - and with the 240 hours, buy it at the top of an hour in the morning to get full value for that day. That way you'll know what time it will expire in 240 hours.

the add-ons U.S just for 10 day roaming package and is will be working when you purchase right away and don't purchase until you visit U.S.

 

after first purchase 10 day roaming you need to waiting for 24 hr to repurchase other 10 day roaming or if you not like to waiting for 24 hr then you need contact to CSA, to them can be add it manual.

@sparkaction  - as I understand it, the Roaming addons expire 10 days after the point of which you successfully add it to your account, so 240 hours from that point.

 

Note, if you are trying to add the same Roaming addon right after the 240 hours it expires, there is a odd glitch that that you need to wait 24 hours after the 10 days have past to purchase another same addon. Work around is to ask csa to add it for you, or purchase a different type of roaming addon, which system will allow.

@sparkaction   It start counting the 10 days, 240 hours  from the moment the purchase was completed successfully,  so, it is 8pm on 11th.
