What is Roaming?
Roaming is an opportunity to travel abroad with your cell phone and always being available  to be called with your own phone number. People may do not know that you are out of country and dialing your number as usual they always are able to reach you by calling the same phone number.

Enabling/disabling Roaming rules
Before departure, make sure that a country you are leaving for, has Roaming service.
On arrival, switch on your cell phone and it would automatically get registered in a network which has roaming service. In the event if  your cell phone is not automatically registered in such country, choose available network manually (look up your phone manual).
If you have 50 s.u. or more on your balance, your cell phone would automatically enable Roaming service. You can manually enable Roaming service when necessary, using USSD commands:
Deactivation of Roaming service *2004*120#
Activation of Roaming service *2004*121#
Service status verification *2004*12#

Attention!

That’s why we recommend to disable all forwarding functions before your departure abroad, particularly the function of call forwarding to Voice mail, for prevention of any unanticipated extra charges.
