Postpaid contracts are becoming less interesting for mobile phone customers, because prepaid plans have, in general, much more various and better international calling plans. Every carrier provides such services, but they can be very various and different, adapted to the needs of customers from a certain region or place. Let’s talk a bit about T-Mobile MVNO MetroPCS because it has made a few changes to their 10 dollars World Calling add-on. Changes that look like positive for their customers. Now, the 10 dollars Mexico calling add-on is available but unchanged.
What you will get for this World Calling feature? Well, for 10 dollars you’ll have all the services mentioned above:
200 minutes of calling to international mobile numbers in these countries
200 minutes of calling to any number while roaming in these countries
Receive unlimited text messages while in select countries
Ability to send 200 text messages in select countries
Unlimited texting to international numbers while in the US
Unlimited landline calling to more than 75 countries while in the US
Not all the features are new, being included before in the plan, but definitely the roaming privileges for this money are introduced for the first time. Surely, it is important to mention that the services included in the 10 dollars add-on are available only for those customers that have MetroPCS’s 50 dollars and 60 dollars plans. Besides this, let us mention also that the FAQ page quotes that this add-on is good only for certain phones, which probably means smartphones. It is true that they don’t specific this thing exactly, but as more and more customers get an smartphone, more than 170 million only in USA!, their mention there looks quite obvious.
