International Roaming Not Working

Same issue here. My plan states that I have 2g of speeds while traveling, yet as soon as I enter a country(Mexico, Germany, Italy) my phone bricks and reaches what appears to be 2kb speeds of data. As soon as I add-on the $5 a day pass (my only option unless I use my laptop) the phone starts working normally again. 

When the pass expires it goes back to bricking my phone. Meaning it takes approx 5m to load a page. So the 2gb is a lie. I am unable to get the exact speeds since the phone is so limited in speed that it can't run the speed test. 

All this said, its fine that I have to use the add-on, being lied to though is maddening. However, the add-on is $5 a day which appears as the only option until I login to the desktop app and then I am able to get 30 days for $35. There is no other option which is also maddening. I have to keep adding the international plan every day if I am staying for less than 7 days. 

I wish T-Moblie would provide a better international experience. Verizon had zero issues when I traveled. It would instantly just work at the speeds they claimed without requiring add-ons or it would state clearly what the cost were in a text, I could OK the cost and it would just work. T-mobiles crappy international implementation is what is forcing me to switch back to Verizon once my plan is up in a year.
