[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As someone mentioned tmobile has international roaming. It was fine for texting and calling. Data was somewhat slow and I couldn't use facetime. It worked fine for a long weekend.

I am going on a longer trip and I added T-mobiles upgraded international service so I could have faster data and it may have been $50 for 10 days. They had one that cost less for less data though. I can't remember the cost off the top of my head. [/quote]

Which T Mobile base plan do you have?  I thought with Magenta Max you get 5 GB of high speed data in Europe before it slows down to low speeds.[/quote]

Yes that's the Magenta Max plan.  Older cheaper plans only get the 5GB high speed in a few countries where T-Mobile has tight corporate connections (Germany is one through Telekom).  But the slow data is still fine for directions, VOIP calls, etc.  Just can't be looking at complex web pages, watching videos or uploading a bunch of pictures.  Which aren't things you do a lot, hopefully, when out and about on vacation.[/quote]
