The default responses are not okay. T-mobile service didn't work even after getting on the wifi. Your service is supposed to work everywhere and I was stranded without communication. T-mobile needs to refund me $1234 for a flight I had to come for out of pocket all because your service didn't work. I had to use other's people devices to conduct important personal and business - that is the only way i was able to get back home. I will take a phone serviced by aother provider next time I go overseas.

 

Not that I don’t feel for your emergency, but when traveling to a foreign country, you might want to use a more ‘local’ service.

“Your service is supposed to work everywhere “ - T-Mobile won’t (can’t) guarantee country of a roaming provider in another country, let alone it’s own .. here.

I've used many carriers (AT&T, Sprint, Nextel, Verizon, T-Mobile) and they all have their issues … even locally.  If I'm going to be in a foreign country where I NEED to rely on cellular service, or data in general to work, I'm going to do what "I" can to ensure that there are no issues.  

Most T-Mobile default data services roaming (esp in foreign countries) are ~2G service speeds, unless you want to purchase high speed.  That is 'your' choice.  I have used the slow speed service in Europe, and it isn't great .. but good enough for Google Maps and text.
