    I uses AT&T prepaid $300/year, unlimit call and 6GB per month, free roaming in Canada including data. It's plenty for basic needs. Now I'm using ATT data in Canada and keep my Canadian number via $13 public mobile monthly plan.
    Sim card purchased via ebay and activated in Canada before my first trip to U.S
    Just remeber to insert sim card in cell and turn it on, before activating via ATT website.

    Att usually requires that you use the phone more in the country where you pay your bill. If you use it too much in Canada they will drop you. I could not open the 8com website. But the unlimited is probably for talk and text. There is no such thing as unlimited data for $25.00 . 8com is a reseller. Who provides the service in Canada? Who provides the service in the usa?

    I have Rodgers roam like home, 10gig, full speed then it throttles back, I go thru the 10g most month but dont really notice after 10 that the speed drops by much? Taxes in it's around $120 a month.

    Telus peace of mind canada-us. $95 before taxes. 10gig and then it throttles it down. Never hit 10 gig so no idea if it slows down much after that.
     
    Phantom Trucker Thanks this.

    If you stream 10g is nothing. I tried calling that 8com but I guess they don't work on Saturdays. I too was on roam like home but they have better plans. More gb per month and the extra gb is cheap.

    I have that same plan with Telus and yes it does slow down after you’ve used up your 10. Sometimes it’s super slow, other times it seems normal.
