there are some plans that allow you these persistent int'l roaming
- Fonus is one, but the history behind the company isn't that great
- Verizon's TravelPass plan only seems to restrict >50% in canada/mexico, doesnt say >50% int'l.... but that's pricey
- when overseas, do you need local calling, or do you just want to be reachable via your USA phone? alternative = iPhone have DSDV, you can receive calls over the data line of travel eSIM.... then get a travel eSIM
Is Verizon's plan better than TMO's Magenta Max?
