Roam — Roaming occurs when you use your phone
outside your home area. While roaming, a wireless
provider other than yours handles your call, so the service
rate for the call may be higher than those made within
your home area. Please refer to information from your
Wireless Provider on roaming rates.

text, page, or web alert message. You're also notified by a
