Roaming is free but it counts down your anytime minutes, I just got off the phone with them to complain about this. I thought free roaming was totally free, but like I said it counts towards your anytime minutes.

after 800mb they can terminate your service, but you would have to do this for 3 consecutive months

I can confirm he's right. I received a call and letter from them for this. However I'm actually looking for a app to allow roaming since service sucks at home but I dont wanna switch. I'd give anything to see that triangle stay ON at will
 
I looked on my account today and noticed some roaming on the data usage, 2 miles from my house. I called in and was told that roaming was free for voice but there was a 300 mb limit on data and after that I would be charged.

Simple solution! Join us on the dark side, young Luke. No such problems on Verizon :) ;)

The new X is kind of like the death star :)


"Beer", it's what's for dinner.

No thanks, for a similar plan it would cost me about $145.00 per month more. Having just switched form Verizon I must admit their network coverage and speed is a little better in my area. However, when 4G lights up that will not be a problem.
 
Is there a way to check your roaming data usage? I was able to sign into my account and see my data usage but not roaming data usage
 
If there is roaming there will be a red triangle at that link, it will show you the amount of roaming data used and a link to upgrade your service presumably to not incur charges.

So I guess I don't have any data roaming? What upgrade to your service would they want you to do? Would it remove the 300MB data romaing limit?
