Currently in Cuba visiting my grandma and I’ve been coming here for 17 years and I’m 21 and this is the first time I’ve ever questioned international lines because Ive always gotten services automatically here and i get the area code so I can call and messages to the us and here in Cuba I was very curious of the possibilities of thing you can do with international service even though I’ve experienced the stuff

Comment from : @deeplorable8988

Cant stand your voice Why do you talk like that ?
Comment from : @HarrySingh_Unfeigned

Excellent tips! thanks!
Comment from : @vesparama

Most of my friends just buy a SIM card at whichever country they arrive in, but I use an international data plan
Comment from : @SYDAirlineEnthusiast

AT&T can get very expensive for 10$ a day don’t recommend that
Comment from : @Walk-retirement-travel

Airalo discount code GREG7928 brBNESIM discount code FJH6K2QW
Comment from :

To clarify, in 0:15 when you say don’t get a prepaid phone, do you mean an actual hardware phone or like a prepaid international SIM like Airalo? Are those good?
Comment from : @richarddickens2438

this is so ridiculously complicated
Comment from : @jimclark5037

Thank for all your information How does it work if you have a phone service account like Cricket or Metro by T mobile?
Comment from : @isabellaquinn8041

It is not affordable in Canada
Comment from : @judithsears8145

There is no such thing as a "T-Mobile International Magenta plan" T-Mobile plans include international texting as part of their services

When I traveled to China and Taiwan, I used Apple Facetime and was able to see my grandkids as well as talk to them,
Comment from : @tomhammer1784

What did she say again Most confusing video ever Amazing how much cellular companies rip you off when you travel 😂
Comment from : @charlespowell5847

Here is the problem I don't see anyone talk about Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile all have time limits on how long you can be out of the USA before they will drop you That is, if you don't make calls from the USA within 3 to 6 months, your service will be dropped We plan on being out of the US for 6 months maximum at a time for 2 to 3 years, coming back to US for about 2 weeks in between What is best way to deal with that situation??? We would prefer to keep our current numbers
Comment from : @outbackretirement

too expensive, better to buy in europe, since the locals always seem to be travelling
Comment from : @casaraku1

We spend so much time in Romania that we just both got Romanian SIM cards with Orange Costs us about $8 a month each We just popped the SIM card into the second SIM slot on our phones I now put the international number on my business cards so my clients can reach out to me at any time
Comment from : @steven_dekok

Actually, the ATT plan is capped at $100 per month
Comment from : @RayinthePhillipines

So is the best idea is buy a 2nd phone and just buy sim card
Comment from : @frankcentofanti9317

I'd have watched this video if you had a over head mike and a tan 😊

Comment from : @sarahdang9491

Comment from : @JustAKidNoMore

$10 a day I better buy a new phone from there
Comment from : @weiqaiWQ

Do I need a VPN like surfshark if I’m just doing the occasional text, call or posting to Facebook on my Verizon international plan?
Comment from : @kellylee514

Mate of mine did that many years back on a trip to Spain, ended up with a phone bill for around $460!
Comment from : @richardwalker4518

I am looking for a plan similar to the one I just mentioned but that does not deactivate international roaming after 90 days of consecutive activity outside of the US
Comment from : @UpgradingJeff

Great info
Comment from : @HoloHoloAdventures

Thanks for this video I will just call AT&T
Comment from : @Ateyaaa

AT&T international plan at $10 a day used to cap at $100/month but you did not mention it You said it could be up to $300 which I believe is not true
Comment from : @melissaexline912

One useful tip: buy a local SIM In Europe there is one market In Asia it depends But prices are always much lower than those US based plans Also stay away from eSIM providers with regional plans Local sims are cheaper!
Comment from : @peli71

Kristin out here getting her back blown out, instead of getting married and having kids, smh
Comment from : @Nunya_Argo79

dual sim phones are great in asia
Comment from : @mpaji750

E-sims? Airealo, Holafly…???
Comment from : @CaptDiaz

Didi you use orange holiday SIM card in any part of EU ? I’m going there this May and internet is gonna be my best friend roaming around France and Italy Thanks
Comment from : @shennabay9111

Hi Kristin, I'm going to be traveling internationally for 6-12 months I am planning to port my US number with Google Voice so as not to lose it Was considering Google Fi but I hear that they will deactivate my account if I dont return to the US within 2-3 months Should I just plan on using eSims (ie Airalo) and will that suffice for maintaining my WhatsApp?
Comment from : @ForryJ07

👍
Comment from : @rain7096

I have the orange holiday eSIM, but I registered it with the French government so I can keep the number as long as I top it up every 6 months When you top-up you can get 30gb for 32 euros that lasts a month And it works in all of Europe and the UK
Comment from : @rbphilip

Lots of options -thank you
Comment from : @terencejamesmusic4126

So you would recommend google fi for home country (usa) along with an international plan for internet for budget traveler abroad?
Comment from : @johnrivera2615

just buy a burner phone when you're in Europe
Comment from : @GQCALLISRF

pre paid sim cards dont work for the new Iphone 15 we dont use sim cards anymore
Comment from : @GQCALLISRF

Comment from : @GQCALLISRF

I bought a SIM in Italy for a fraction of AT&T fee, with more data
Comment from : @thomasoffutt5715

Did you can you do a show defining and usingi HOTSPOTS ??
Comment from : @BPe-ie9je

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but the ATT International plan, does it cover all the phones in our plan or is it $1000 per phone?br(We have 3 phones on our AT&T plan, myself, my wife and our son) and are going to the netherlandsbrbrTIA
Comment from : @Flint92

Love your videos Kristin I'm about to replace my iPhone 7 and shifting life course so I'm thinking to go out of my Verizon service to get a non-American iPhone 15 to be able to get it with both a sim tray and E-sim I'm concerned about not being able to install a SIM card in countries that don't have E-sim Wondering if you or anyone chose this option it will be more expensive to buy the phone this way but I don't want to have a second phone or trust how long it might take countries not having e-sim to catch up Thank you
Comment from : @PosieStrenz

10 dollars a day is robberyI use GoogleFi and never had any problems and it is 70 bucks a month And it never failed in many trips to SE Asia
Comment from : @bitemenow609

Wi-Fi access is a good way to go Apps such as WhatsApp or WeChat have voice and video chat that we've used regularly - no international dialing required, and no Skype fees As long as you have Wi-Fi access at a decent bandwidth, you're good to go Also - use a VPN if you're going to rely on a local Wi-Fi provider or hotspot In the past, I'd get a local SIM so my hosts/foreign country friends could call me without having to dial an expensive US phone number For a short trip, most mobile providers have reasonable international plans They're fine unless - as you pointed out - you're traveling for more than a few days
Comment from : @ZingaroXIV

3 NETWORK IN UK DOES 180 COUNTRIES, YOU VAN BUY 12 GUG OR 24 GIG CARDS, 24 LAST FIR A YEAR OR UNTILL YOU USE IT UP, THATS DATA ONLY, OR YOU CAN GET CELL PHONE CARDS WITH SAME FAYA BUT 300 OR UNLIMITED, ABOUT 20 TO 40 POUNDS, MINUTES I FOUND THE DATA WORKED WELL HERE IN BRAZIL TO COMPLIMENT MY SLOW INTERNET HERE BUT NOW I GOT FIBRE WITH 500 MEG SPEED FOR 22 POUNDD
Comment from : @petermizon4344

I used to have a T-Mobile 5GB data plan when I traveled to South America or Europe, to my surprise, my phone would automatically connect with a local carrier at 128KB I have a Google Voice number so this was sufficient for email and text if I downloaded data intensive things such as maps and travel information ahead of time does anyone know ithis low speed roaming is still available for just any old T-Mobile plan?
Comment from : @gr8bkset-524

I plan on moving to Thailand I have a extra Samsung galaxy to guess I should just get a esim card just for Thailand to my USA plan is with metro pcs to so
Comment from : @randymontgomery4307

If I have an overseas sim, how about a cheap home with hotspot
Comment from : @viplav76

I have an Unlocked phone outside of my carrier of choice (Asus ROG Phone 3; T-Mobile) My phone has the advantage of having a dual SIM slot Not only can I use T-Mobile's roaming plan, but I also have the option of using a local SIM card for use within my host country
Comment from : @themorn2112

No Buy an unlocked phone and get a SIM card in each country I never use a contract with a service provider In Asia a SIM card is usually about for $10 for a month
Comment from : @jamesl9371

Comment from : @stephenkenny7661

I travel mostly to Asian countries, never ever to Europe especially not to France Had to work in France 20 yesrs past, it was a horrible experience being there and the arrogant low life French and the hate they have for Americans As relocating to the Philippines as my wife is a Filipina We used WHATSAPP and is great, just need WIFI Purchased a phone there for use
Comment from : @danielpearson4972

Comment from : @XXXXXX___913

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!
Comment from : @stokes111111

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 : @anniesshenanigans3815

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 : @JuanParra0517

I thought ATT maximum charge for international plan is $100?
