Hi,

In about 3 weeks I will be travelling to Portugal for about a month. How does travel data work exactly? Does it just work as soon as I land? What about calls/texts? I have an older phone (S20 FE) that does not work with eSIM, so I am stuck with either purchasing a SIM card in advance on Amazon or purchasing travel data and calls/texts. I can see that data for Portugal is $20/5GB, and I'll need roughly 20GB to be safe, so $80, but what about calls and texts? How does that work exactly?

Thanks!

    Incoming texts are always free.
    Roaming should also work immediately after you land and register on new network, provided roaming and sim are enabled in your phone.

    Note that data add-ons differ from calls add-ons and purchasing only data won't enable you to make calls.

    You need to buy separate travel-ons for talk, text (outgoing) and data. The details are available from the Fizz website where you already found the data travel-on. If you are in ON or QC, you can also use pay-as-you-go from the Fizz wallet. Outgoing texts most likely 3c per text. Incoming free.
