Paris Cell Service
I will be traveling to France in April, May & June. Will I need to make any adjustments to my current plan to have service throughout my travels in France? It is imperative that I have service while...
Here is what I found on Reddit:
"The main trigger for excessive roaming warnings is data roaming. I know a few folks who have been overseas for a couple of years and if they keep data roaming turned off T-Mobile ignores them. Just turn on wifi calling and you will be fine. If however you try to use your phone normally with roaming data switched on you will have 2-3 months before T-Mobile starts to send you termination warnings. Note that there is no appeal for excessive roaming termination. Reps will not be able to intervene."
Basically, you will need to buy an international roaming pass for data usage, and turn off roaming data starting on your 3rd month. If you're on prepaid, I think you can add data passes. If you're on regular plan, they have the Go5G plus that includes 5GB of data in France at $90/mo.
It's in the Tmobile terms and conditions under roaming. 50% of use must be on Tmobile USA towers. Tmobile is now selling there plans as "not for extended international use."
