Apple Watch SE Standalone - International roaming doesn't work
I’m traveling in one of the T-mobile supported roaming countries (Spain) and while our phones have successfully used the local cell network, our standalone apple watch (not tethered to a device) is unable to go into international roaming mode. I spoke to a T-mobile rep (who was nice, but didn’t seem that knowledgeable) and we hunted for some plan that might allow for international roaming for a standalone but were unable to find one. Oddly, on this page: https://my.t-mobile.com/account/change-plan/plan-comparison there seems to be a Standalone 500Mb plan that DOES support International roaming. I happen to have an Unlimited plan, which I assume would supersede a 500Mb plan. Is there any truth to the 500Mb plan and actual international roaming or is this untrue?
No Signal Prepaid International
I have a prepaid sim card that Im currently not using anymore (= no active plan). I am abroad (Germany) and still have that phone number connected to 2-factor-authentication system. However when trying to use the sim card I have no reception here. Is it because I have no active plan? If thats so what would be my cheapest option just to recieve 1 message? Thank you
International Roaming & Rejecting Incoming Calls
If I'm out of the US traveling and someone calls me and I don't answer the call will I be charged? If that person leaves a voicemail and I don't call to check my voicemail would I be charged? If so, if I disable voicemail would it avoid me getting this charge? Or do I have to disable voicemail and remove call forwarding? There seems to be a lot of conflicting information about this. I spoke to a few T-mobile reps and some say I won't get charged and others are saying I will get charged regardless. So I honestly do not know who/what to believe! Any tips would be appreciated.
