Global
Internet Service Providers
|
Companies that offer global roaming services have partnerships
with local Internet service providers in many different countries.
As such, Internet access is provided through a local call. These companies
often provide local access in countries where your home Internet service
provider does not. Service and rate plans vary greatly. Make sure
to do your research prior to departure. Some options include:
- User pays only when using the service
- User pays a subscription rate with added usage fees when in
the destination country.
