Hi
Now I'm confused. T-Mobile prepaid coverage map is just the same as 'normal' coverage map.
but then I find this.
Quote:
Roaming restricted to T-Mobile USA network.
So. let's say I go to alaska to the spot marked 850 Roaming area, will I be able to roam on their network with T-Mobile To Go?

I looked a bit closer on the two maps.
And from what I see there are differences which would suggest that there is roaming for prepaid. i would like to confirm that with you, mpapple.
Also if it is. i have questions.
1. What's the difference with 850 MHz Roaming and T-Mobile Roaming Coverage? If it's on 850 it's still gonna be different provider, and T-Mobile roaming will be on 1900 roaming carrier, right?
2. What's the pricing for prepaid roaming?

You can't roam off of T-Mobile coverage, actually, with T-Mobile To Go (prepaid).

Gah, I think I just went off memory. Nevermind, the CSR's right. They have access to the policies.
Sorry, mate.
