GoKawiilTraveler hit with surprise roaming fees despite data and roaming disabled
An Android Authority writer describes being billed for roaming data twice in three months even though mobile data and roaming were turned off on a rarely used phone connected only to Wi-Fi. The carrier recorded tiny amounts of roaming usage—under 200KB—which triggered a full roaming-day charge, echoing a widely shared case of a Reddit user hit with a $53,000 AT&T bill after a European trip.
