Answer by Herfnerd
What is so important that you can’t afford to be out of contact for a few days? You’re on vacation!

But you have to have a phone that operates on the global, GSM frequencies and not the CDMA commonly found in the US. And you will be assessed roaming charges…..

What do you think? Answer below!

Question by germX: smart international roaming prepaid sim card has “no service” on cell phone?
Help…. my cell phone is not recognizing the “smart sim” card. It says, no service. When I initially placed the sim card into the phone it worked. I did receive a few text messages confirming the load I added to the sim card but when I attempted to send a text it went from having service to no service. I am using an unlocked iPhone 3GS.

Best answer:

Answer by Pickleman
well, you should lock your phone, the card probably isnt in tight enough with it unlocked
