Re: Trip to Europe

Many of us are just using the Sprint International services. They are just $2 a day and you can use Skype mobile.... I am currently in France using those services just fine. You need the Skype SIM card, which is free, but you have to call to get it. Do a search and you will find a couple threads on this. I am on an extended trip and also went through Germany and the Middle east pretty much just fine. If you search on Thailand, there is a lot of information.

Report how you did. We really need a sticky on this.

Re: Trip to Europe

Seems Sprint does not acknowledge an international data plan. I called their international team and they just give me the .019kb. Of course i am going to Bosnia so that might have something to do with it. I am gonna keep calling them and pestering.

Re: Trip to Europe

So I finally talk to someone who knows what they are doing and it turns out since I'm on SERO I can't get the international data plan. Good times I tell ya. i may have to change my plan or add a phone for the trip.
