Default Calling to USA from overseas with Spectrum Mobile

We travel quite a bit and we often move from country to country. Currently have Verizon and that has worked well for us. Since we are looking at moving to Spectrum mobile, I was wondering if anyone has called back to the USA from overseas as a customer of Spectrum. My concern is that while Spectrum uses the Verizon network in the USA, I wasn't sure if we would get as reliable service overseas. Anyone have actual experience in this area?

I don't believe that would work on Spectrum. Verizon has seamless ties to other networks all over the world plus with their international calling plan no ($10/day) I've made calls on 6 continents with no issue.

Check out Google Fi also. When overseas, I have used it (20¢ a minute) to call back to the USA and also to other countries.

I have used Verizon overseas as well. The Spectrum website claims that they have service in many countries but claims don't always meet expectations. Thanks!

Also thanks for the heads up on Google FI.

That's a good question for Spectrum Mobile - do they have a $10/day international roaming agreement when traveling outside the US like what AT&T and Verizon have?

I have the AT&T service and it's great.

When outside the US, just need to be sure that phone has GSM capability. Most modern phones from the last several years do.

The $10/day is for each 24 hour period. If not used, no charge. This is for internet data, text, and calls. To disable access while outside the US, turn Roaming off in phone settings.
