If you are wondering how well the T-Mobile International Pass or Simple Global International Data Work when traveling internationally, you will find this article very helpful.

NB: This article is based on our experiences with T-Mobile when traveling around the world.

Is Simple Global International Data worth it?

Yes and No. That’s because it depends on the destination you are traveling to. 

However, on most of our international travels, it has always worked fine, and only had a few problems in some countries that we visited.

NOTE: These are the countries on the list of 215+ countries covered by the T Mobile International plan.

Based on our experiences, T-Mobile worked very well in Qatar.

Immediately we arrived, we instantly started roaming. It was stress-free!

T-Mobile alternatives to help you stay connected while in Qatar

Getting a local SIM card when traveling abroad is usually a great option if you are looking for a cheaper option, especially when you are traveling to Qatar on a budget.

Personally, I used Ooredoo SIM while in Qatar. I also used it when registering on Ehteraz.

Vodafone is also a great option if you want to get a local SIM card in Qatar.

If you plan on getting a local SIM card in Qatar, it is important to note that SIM cards usually have certain validities for tourists/people visiting Qatar.

NOTE:
If you decide to get the Ooredoo SIM and want to

If you are traveling outside the US and wonder if T-Mobile has good coverage in Spain, you will find this article very helpful.

This is based on our first-hand experience using T-Mobile in Spain.

How is T-Mobile coverage in Spain?

When we arrived in Spain, the data speeds were very slow. However, the speed improved after we received the T-Mobile welcome to Spain message.

Generally, our experience with T-mobile throughout Spain (mostly in the Southern and Eastern parts of Spain) on the 2G data was very slow, but the speeds improved when we purchased an add-on.

However, we realized that this was also an expensive alternative.

NOTE:
From experience, if you have a postpaid plan when traveling to Spain, you may end up getting very slow data speeds.
