Understanding Roaming
Recognizing Icons on the Display Screen
Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re
off the network available to you. The following chart indicates
what you’ll see depending on where you’re using your phone.
Tip: Remember, when you are using your phone off the network, always dial
numbers using 11 digits (1 + area code + number).
Note: You will pay a higher per-minute rate for roaming calls.
Roaming on Other Digital Networks
When you’re roaming on digital networks, your call quality
and security will be similar to the quality you receive when
making calls on the network. You may not be able to access
certain features.
Note: If you’re on a call when you leave the network available to you and
enter an area where roaming is available (whether digital or analog), your
call is dropped. If your call is dropped in an area where you think network
service is available, turn your phone off and on again to reconnect to
the network.
