Um, sorry but I've never seen this.  I used to world-roam on AT&T, and now
I do it with T-Mobile and never had any such drama.

ditto. color me clueless, but AT&T worked once upon a time, and T-Mobile works quite well for me now.

t-mobile usa has significant holes in thier roaming agreements as far as I'm concerned... the most glaring ones in my recent past were korea telecom, and sonatel (senegal). t-mobile deutschland of course roams both places.
