Renting an international phone from T-Mobile
I don't have a cell phone here at home in NY, but would like to have one for use during my upcoming vacation in SE Asia. I plan on renting an international cell phone for one month from T-Mobile, and simply using their airtime.
Has anyone on this board ever rented a cell phone for overseas use? Do the phone actually work once overseas? Am I getting myself into a mess, or will the transaction actually work as advertised? I am not a tech savvy person. Are there any pitfalls I should be aware of?
Any experiences or opinions you might share will be well appreciated! Thanks.
