I pay $30 a month for 1000Gb of 4g. Unlimited texts, 60 mins calls (or I can swap unlimited calls for limited texts). I can internationally roam these 17 countries at no extra charge. (Up to 25Gb, 50k texts) :

Australia, Austria, Denmark, Finland, France, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Israel, Italy, Macau, Norway, Republic of Ireland, Sri Lanka, Sweden, Switzerland, United States

I can also tether without rooting, my phone acts as a wifi hotspot.



$30/month including in the US? How do I sign up?


Step 1, move to England

Interesting. I wonder how they manage to pull that off. I see that they partner with T-Mobile and AT&T for the US. I don't imagine AT&T lets them access their network for so little money. I wonder what would happen if I got one of their SIM cards and then just used it full-time in the US. Would they cut me off as an abuser, or just eat the cost...?


The details page [1] does include this

> Feel At Home is designed for UK residents who are on holiday or business trips abroad, not for extended periods abroad.

And I just noticed this

> You can't use your phone as a personal hotspot (tethering) while you're abroad

There's always a catch! Still, that's quite a good deal if you live where they expect you to live. Good roaming while traveling abroad would be great to have. AT&T is definitely not good in that respect.
