thanks for this video kristin! If I port my number to google voice, will I still be able to get text messages from my US number forwarded to me after i pop in a local sim card when over seas? I only have one sim port, so I'll have to take my US sim card out Thanks!

Google Fi only works abroad for about a month, if you read the fine print they say you need to "mostly" use it in the United States

ugh I have watched SO many videos on this and it still sounds like gibberish!!!
Comment from : AnniesShenanigans

Hello Kristin! Thank you for this video, much appreciated May I ask you a clarifying question? You stated in the beginning of the video that you don’t have to do much when you get the T-Mobile pass other than just turn on your phone and connect to the local network What does that mean? And how do you connect to the local network? Your help would be so appreciated!

Comment from : Mao Gom

People erroneously still call the smartphones, "cell phones" cell phones br went out of fashion when all these smartphones started to come out
Comment from : Come Concon

You have just solved all my questions Thank you very much
Comment from : Luz Crane

AT&T international plan will charge no more than 10 days of usage in a billing period So if you used it on day 11 onwards when abroad, it is free until the end of your billing cycle
Comment from : Albert Carpio

What about an e-sims card ?
Comment from : michelle evans

Traveling with two phones? Seriously?
Comment from : DonTobi

Im in France, coming from canada, i bought a sim card with 10GB, no problems right? Im always freaking over this stuff
Comment from : Bat Hombre

ATT International plan is $10 per day with a charge cap of 10 days A second phone on your account is only $5 per day if used on same day as primary line We are going to Europe for 20 days and if we both use our phones every day it will cost $150
Comment from : Lori Guinan

how do I know if a sim card for my cell phone Galaxy S20 will work? you mentioned unlocked phone, what does it mean??
Comment from : Evelyn Novoa

Great info Thanks much
Comment from : SumaHomes

Hi Kristen! Do the international carriers have esims yet? If you own an iPhone such as the iPhone SE 2nd or 3rd edition you can have both a physical sim and an estimate so your phone can have 2 numbers and access to 2 data networks Have a wonderful week and i love your videos and enjoyed nomads for dummies (audible version)

I must addmit i clickbait asf because you know what was in the thumbnail
Comment from : CHRISTIAN HERNAN

If you are going to use local internet hotspots when you travel make sure you have a vpn on you electronic devices
Comment from : Dennis Spackman

International phone plans for Canadian phone plans are expensive so I never use them I usually travel for several months at a time I mostly need data rather than making phone calls I usually buy a local plan for the given country I am travelling in, its much cheaper
Comment from : Dennis Spackman

so are you saying I no longer have to get a SIM card when i go to Thailand with international plans I have a iphone with tmobile
Comment from : SOLO AL

But SIM cards are no longer used in iPhones; so you will need to use an eSIM
Comment from : Sam Zakhem

I have a Verizon iPhone What are my best options in traveling from USA to Europe?
Comment from : Anthony Chappell

International roaming for me Can keep my own phone number and get plenty of data For me - totally worth it 💰
Comment from : Anne Bialecki

Many websites, such as banks and credit cards require double verification to log in They will text a code to your cell phone number on file to verify your identity before you can log in I will be traveling in about two months I have to keep my US cell phone number How can I get these verification texts on my cell phone when I am abroad? Can you let me know? Thank you for any help!
Comment from : Robert W

Got the answer:brT-Mobile international passbr1 month for 50 dollarsbrIt’s the best plan , period!
Comment from : Gary Araoz

Straight talk phone service is no longer a good service plan, no refunds
Comment from : Cindy Crawford

Unfortunately, the Galaxy S23 devices sold in the US only work with SIM cards in three countries, in an attempt to enforce the region locking and curb gray market selling Keep in mind this is not an exhaustive list of carriers MVNOs may be supportedbr(I don't always use data roaming, you know)brbrUNITED STATESbr• AT&Tbr• Metro by T-Mobilebr• T-Mobile USAbr• US Cellularbr• Verizonbr• Xfinity MobilebrbrGERMANYbr• Telekom DeutschlandbrbrSWEDENbr• Telia

T-Mobile also has a 15GB high-speed add on that is good for 30 days
Comment from : Hisao Yatsuhashi

I need tips I'm going to Colombia for two weeks have a t mobile google pixel phone and I would like to communicate with my wife through WhatsApp i want to use the T-Mobile magenta plan for 15gb for 30 days would i be able to use WhatsApp if I sue that bundle
Comment from : Jorge Duran

Now I'm totally confused !
Comment from : Eleanor Stenberg

you covered about 20 different concepts in 7 minutes, all incompletely, doesn't help me at all
Comment from : kevin welsh

The best deal is an Esim which you can get from the App store Airlo seems to have the best rates and you're connecting to the local cell network VS AT&T which is slower when roaming on a foreign network Also no need to physically swap your SIM The rates are different in each country But if you were going to Portugal, for instance, you can get a $15 day plan with 30 gigs of data for $1900 Which is much cheaper than the $10 per day roaming charge that AT&T has Also AT&T only charges you for the days that you actually use roaming So it's not a bad idea to add that to your plan just in case you don't switch to your esim right away
Comment from : Bill Streeter

And what a lot of people having prepaid plans this video is not for those who have prepaid this videos only for those web postpaid mean that prepaid does not work international it might work in the USA Canada Mexico and he was Virgin Islands in the US territories but that's about it with prepaid service
Comment from : jm Morgenstern

Please note this is good for postpaid customers only this video is not good for any prepaid customers as far as I know is not good for prepaid customers only good for postpaid now prepaid really should at International stuff also but they're not going so if you have a regular Verizon contract plan or AT&T or T-Mobile contract plan or something like that yet it will work however if you have a prepaid plan with Prepaid this will not work
Comment from : jm Morgenstern

If you have wifi can you just call/message people on Facebook messenger?
Comment from : Hannah Kocian

Att is capped at 10 days so you can stay a month but still only pay for 10 days which is $100 Not a bad deal
Comment from : Shawn

I think the info for Tmobile has changed since you made your video I spoke to them yesterday (Jan 26 2023) and they told me i can get the international pass, which costs $50 for 30 days and includes 15gb of high speed data (or whatever the max speed of the provider i am connected to when travelling) After the high speed15gb is used up, i would drop down to the standard 256kbps with no data limit 256kbps, as we all know is painful when you are trying to load google maps (assuming you didnt download the maps needed beforehand) or search a destination Texting is free and calls are 25 cents per minute Im going to be visiting Asia for 15 days, so this comes out to just over $3 per day while i am away, which to me is a great deal!
Comment from : Jim Tschetter

Actually, for AT&E, you only pay for 10 days per month, so it maxes out at $100 per month Which is very affordable to me
Comment from : Debbie D

Which is best if you’ll use ur phone for eTickets on trains?

Comment from : FREE H RAP BROWN

in 2005 I paid 50 euro for an Orange SIM cardthe only time it worked was crossing borders when it let me know what country I had just driven intovery handy 11,500 km later I get back to Paris to learn that the reason I could not make calls was that the card only had 3 euros on it47 euros had been an administrative chargeneedless to say I will never do business with Orange again
Comment from : pete ok

OkbrI'm totally confused 😒
Comment from : Kevin F

Comment from : Brian Donatelli

Comment from : Mariedel DeVitis

What is the most efficient route for my clients to reach me like normal as I am planning to take a 45-day trip, vacationing in Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei and Vietnam next year My current carrier is At and T, pre-paid plan I was told that I had to switch to international plan so I won’t miss the communications / calls/ texts from local America callers while I am abroad from country to country, layover in Japan during the trip I had inquire in person at At and T store They said it’s $100 per month Unlimited data, and forgot what others included So I will need to pay $200 for 45 days Is there any other options? The main purpose is I want to be able to use my iPhone 13 like exactly in America, texting, answering calls, reply calls, use YouTube, social media, connecting my potentials, connect existing clients, business associates Please PM me
Comment from : Dorie Kong

Att no plan for those grandfathered!
Comment from : Naomi Morse

Q: I am American I am with AT&T and plan to got to Serbia I haven't deal with international data yet What if you get free WiFi spot in other country? You can use itbrbrAlso, I got a old phone I think of make it unlock phone for international and buy sim card for it Still good thing?
Comment from : Imhim247

Thank you for this information I live in the US and I'm traveling to Australia and New Zealand for a total of 15 days Normally I try to use WhatsApp for text and calls but I'm limited to using only with WiFi I'm concerned that while traveling by car thru NZ, I won't have wifi very accessible so I'm thinking of getting a sim card I'm on the Sprint/TMobile network Do you have a better recommendation?
Comment from : Arlene Insua

Hey Kristin! I will be headed to Canada for two weeks to ski My concern is being out on the mountain needing GPS data for the Epic Trail Map and also having the ability to call if there is an emergency What would you suggest? Right now I do not have a phone plan that allows for international use Considering switching to T-Mobile Also have you heard of eSim cards, what are your thoughts on those? Thank you!!!!
Comment from : GRB

I use Fongo World it is pretty good and cheap for Canada and US when you are abroad
Comment from : Martin L

Would definitely recommend and it’s all e sim as well
Comment from : Timothy Neufeld

Why would you be travelling with my cell phone? F-ING THIEF!
Comment from : Montana Dreaming

Yeah but the prob is like with Google Fi, they do not like it when you are using in for more than 3 months outside of US They will just cancel your service with no warning and you are left without any American service
Comment from : Kristofer with a k

AT&T cabs the charge at $100 so if you are going to use more than 10 days of mobile data and 30 day You won’t pay $300, you won’t only pay $100 for 10 days but get 30 days data
Comment from : Porter Anthony

T-Mobile is 5 times cheaper than AT&T
Comment from : Mark L

In AT&T there’s a 10 day cap Beyond 10 days is free so technically only extra $100 per month
Comment from : Neil Anthony Tijing

Hi Kristen, I loved your video and wanted to know how to use my sim card I am travelling to Europe soon and need a sim card for my USA phone Please guide me which one would be appropriate for calls, text and data Thanks a lot

We will be on a European River Cruise in a few weeks with stops in Netherlands, Germany, Austria & Hungary Would you recommend the AT&T International plan or buying an eSim to use for our iPhones? If eSim, which comapy would you recommend?
Comment from : G Kuhs

what do you do with your original SIM Card when you switch it out Would be terrible to lose it!
Comment from : Heather Spore

Comment from : Cam Banks

I am going to the Netherlands and France My current cell phone with Metro PCS does not have an international plan So I will buy a sim card when I arrive in The Netherlands and France Do I have to worry about accidental data roaming charge by Metro PCS while I am in Europe?
Comment from : Lin Sun

Thank you for your video May I ask 1 question, so let's say you get the eSim, I'm with Verizon, when you turn your Airplane mode off to accept eSim, will Verizon charge you their fees too? I heard sometimes when Airplane mode is off, some juice can get by and Verizon will charge you Thank you
