Any Experience with US Mobile International Roaming?
I noticed that US Mobile recently announced on Reddit that they now offer native international roaming on their GSM plans. Previously I believe one needed a roaming eSIM. I presume it is now like the T-Mobile roaming, but 10GB a month plus some free minutes. Has anyone tried their roaming? Does it work reliably and what are the speeds?
I am very tempted as it is half what Verizon is asking for the same amount of data as posted in another thread recently.

I read their details, and they roam in 106 countries, but over half do not get the full 10Gb of free data. Canada only gets 1Gb for instance and Mexico, 3Gb. It is still a nice perk, but it has limitations. The roaming voice & texting looks great though.

Thanks. That's sneaky. I had no idea. I got the impression I could use 10GB in any of the 102 countries or so.

I used their 10gb european/UK esim back in april. Worked fine. At the time I had a US Mobile on Warp(Verizon) with free international data.

Currently it appears that the Warp Plan does not get the free international data roaming, only the $50 GSM (T-Mobile) plan has that feature. Was that changed, and if so, how long ago? I believe from comments on Reddit that they expect to add it to the Warp/Verizon plan by the end of the year.

You overpaid, this plan is just reselling the 3HK plan which is sold for half the price
