Using my phone in Mexico

I am a T-Mobile subscriber and I am wondering if I can use my phone when I am in Cancun, Mexico next week?  If so, when I am calling back to the US from Mexico, do I need to input an international code in front of the number I am calling and will I use the '1' before the number?

Thank you...Neil Blincow (neilblincow@gmail.com or 310 266 9546)

    If you have a plan that includes Mexico, then you should be good.  Otherwise, there are roaming plans you could always add to your plan for the time you are there.  Customer Care or the T-Force Team via Facebook or Twitter would be the best way to find out if your current plan includes Mexico or not and discuss any options, if needed, with you.

    If your plan includes roaming in Mexico, then you shouldn't have any issues.  Whether or not there will be any additional charges ultimately depends on your plan.  What plan are all of the lines on?

    While in Mexico, can I call an US 800 number? Is there a cost?

    You should still be able to call the 800 from your T-Mobile USA number from Mexico.  If your plan includes calling from Mexico to the US, then there shouldn't be any cost for the call unless that 800 number has some sort of special toll associated with it.
