International Roaming Question
Assume you are roaming in the UK with a T-Mobile phone. Besides the 99c/minute roaming charges, what other charges do you incur?
For example, do you incur a long distance charge when someone calls you in the UK from a US landline? If so, how much are the per minute charges?
Any t-Mobile reps to help. Thanks.

It's .99 per minute. If you make a call, local or LD or whatever, it's .99/min. If you receive a call, it's .99/min. Any time you hit "send" it's .99/min. The only oddity is if someone calls, you don't answer and it goes to voice mail--there's a .99 charge for the delivery to VM even if they don't leave a message, so it's best to tell people not to call unless they're okay with you taking .99 out of their hide for a hangup call... 😉

Are you sure there is no LD charge from the US landline added to the intl roaming rate? So the person calling you while your roaming in the UK is treated like making a local call if your area code is local for them?
Verizon's new global phone service seems to indicate that in addition to the international roaming rates(VZW now has a global phone CDMA/GSM)the roaming custimer will also pay int'l LD rates starting at an additional 65c/minute.
