International Roaming Service with NorthernTel Mobility is an ideal solution for frequent international travellers - it allows you to take advantage of one phone, one phone number and one bill when you travel to over 180 countries worldwide.1
Roaming coverage and rates

How to make calls
To make a local call or a long distance call within a country, the dialling method is the same.
To make international calls, you need to use the international dialling code used in that county.
In GSM, you don't have to know the international dialling code. You can replace it by the "+" symbol. To get the "+" symbol, hold the "0" key for a few seconds until the "+" appears on the display.
In CDMA, the international dialling codes are:
| US, Bermuda, Guam and Caribbean |
011 |
| Hong Kong, South Korea and Thailand |
001 |
| Taiwan |
005 |
| Other CDMA countries |
00 |
Roaming charges in CDMA mode
You will continue to benefit from the same great service and pricing you rely on with NorthernTel when roaming in CDMA territory, whether using your handset or data device.
