receive text while abroad
Currently I’m a prepaid user and I’m going to Japan. Can I receive text/calls when I’m abroad?
I'd suggest that you have some backup plan. Google Voice over WiFi would be a candidate.
I agree. Use a local carrier. Claro works very well all over North and South America and it use the T Mobil network flawlessly while I am in the US. Unfortunately Claro is not available with a US phone number.
So as an answer to your question, very hit and miss for receive SMS message from the US while abroad. Best if you can use another form of two step identification like particular companies app as your second form of the second verifiication.
