International roaming with Verizon Prepaid iPad

I had an iPad 2 with ATT 3G and could roam internationally by subscribing to an international data plan on a monthly basis when traveling. I got a new iPad with Verizon prepaid and was going to Italy in May and while waiting to depart got the iPad out to sign up for the international data plan and it said I had to preactivate it. I was annoyed but decided to activate it when I got back before my next trip.

Off to Spain next week and called Verizon to activate it for international roaming with the intention of signing up for an international data plan for a month. After a some time on hold and some double checking by a helpful agent I got the message, can't activate international roaming on a prepaid account. Is this accurate? Is it still true that you can activate international roaming on a prepaid ATT iPad account? Thanks for any information.
