[QUOTE="t2andreo, post: 1208649, member: 25553"] I use t-Mobile as my provider, here in the US. As a native German company, they have a huge European footprint. Under my mobile plan, when I am in more than 140 countries, including all of Europe, I have unlimited free texting and data. They only start getting ancy and warn me after 30 days in a foreign country. Voice calls are USD 25 cents per minute. So, I reserve voice for emergencies. I can receive calls from the US on my phone the same way as if I were home. But, it costs .25 per minute if I pick up. So, I usually send the calls to voice mail. But, a four minute call is only USD 1 dollar. When I get someplace with decent Wi-Fi, I can make free voice calls, over Wi-Fi. I now have an iPhone XR. As it is due for planned obsolescence soon, I am looking at replacing it with an iPhone 16. My point is that, if you have the right service plan and provider at home, you do not need to do anything. As soon as I power up on landing at Madrid, Paris or London, the phone automatically connects to the local t-mobile partner. Easy Peasy. Hope this helps. Tom [/QUOTE]
