When I travel aboard, I set my phone for CFU (I have the short codes to an enable or disable already set up in my contacts) therefore you are not charged, even for incoming calls or voicemails . When I’m out and about I get transcribed voicemails so I call back via Skype (an unlimited monthly plan which I enable when traveling is quite an inexpensive $3.49USD/month or less for multiple months) therefore I’ve never paid any international fees with T-Mobile
Like I said I have heavy usage and never experienced an issue in Europe, South America, Asia with the basic 128K
