The major advantage of GSM technology is that it allows you
to use your GSM phone when you travel outside your own country
or region. This is known as roaming.
Roaming is the ability to use your own GSM phone number in
another GSM network. You can roam to another region or country
and use the services of any network operator in that region
that has a roaming agreement with your GSM network operator in
your home region/country.
A roaming agreement is a business agreement between two
network operators to transfer items such as call charges and
subscription information back and forth, as their subscribers
roam into each other's areas.
Find out where you can use your GSM phone worldwide, and
see details of network operators worldwide, by visiting our GSM
Roaming site. |
