I was out there for the last 3 weeks – on a three contract which i had renewed weeks before their deadline for stopping free roaming
But my phone wouldn’t work until on turned off my spending cap – then it was £5 a Day !! – needless to say phone was on airplane mode from then on
Bas^tards then told me you you changed your contract your contract before the deadline – but we needed a month to swatch you to a new contract !!, so no free roaming for me anymore
Had a lot of hassle trying to get just a sim in USA – as they all expect you to have a USA billing address so you cant set the sim up on line, luckily for me i met up with a friend from usa in moab who paid for a month on ultra for me (bought a sim from a best buy in grand jucntion) – but that wouldnt work in my uk 4g phone !! – met another mate a week later and he lent me an old us mobile phone he had and then it started working.
Another mate came out in the lst week of my 3 week trip and brought a 3 pay as you go sim – and although that worked in my uk phone – it was rubbish compared to the USA SIM – very inconsistent signal compared to the USA SIM, better than nothing but not great,,
