T-Mobile Adds 20 New Countries and Destinations in Worldwide Coverage Expansion

[gebraset]

T-Mobile has officially announced that it has expanded its worldwide coverage for its customers by adding 20 new countries and destinations to Simple Global. With the addition of these locations, T-Mobile customers can now enjoy unlimited data, texting at no extra cost, and low flat-rate calls for just $0.20 a minute in a total of 145 countries across the globe. Additionally, the expanded coverage means that Simple Global now covers more than 90 percent of the trips that Americans take abroad each year, ensuring that they remain connected to their friends and family while they are away. John Legere, the President and CEO of T-Mobile, noted that “The carriers have made billions overcharging consumers who just want to stay connected overseas, and we’ve changed all that!” He went on to say that “Today, we made it even simpler to text, search or keep up on social media in a total of 145 countries and destinations, all at no extra cost!”

While standard data rates are roughly 128Kbps, and customers are not able to tether their devices while traveling abroad, T-Mobile is offering quite the value when compared to carriers who charge sometimes exorbitant rates when travelling outside of the United States. A full list of the 145 Simple Global countries and destinations can be found on the supported countries portion of the Simple Choice International Plan website.

I'd rather see them work on improving service in US... Had to switch to AT&T because signal is terrible in my area. Good news for frequent travelers, however.
