Spectrum Mobile international calling and texting
Can I use my Spectrum Mobile phone plan internationally?
Spectrum Mobile includes international service within all of their phone plans, which makes it easy to call and text abroad (or call/text international numbers while you’re still at home).
Spectrum Mobile customers can choose pay-per-use rates for international calling and texting, or they can toggle off their primary SIM and choose to use Wi-Fi, local SIM cards, or downloadable eSIMs.
How do I use my Spectrum Mobile phone number internationally?
Spectrum Mobile makes it easy to use your regular number while you’re in another country, and their website clearly shows the calling and data rates for 200+ supported countries.
Free international texting (incoming and outgoing) is included for most countries, which is a nice Spectrum Mobile perk. Select your destination to see their current rates for active calling minutes.
Are there cheaper ways to talk and text internationally?
There are plenty of ways to talk and text while you’re travelling internationally.
Over either Wi-Fi or your eSIM data, iPhone users can rely on iMessage and FaceTime. There are also social media apps with messaging and calling.
Anyone can get a temporary phone number from Hushed for calling and texting over the internet on a private number.
