T-Mobile today kicked off roaming cellular service in Cuba.
T-Mobile customers will be able to use their T-Mobile phones to make calls, send messages, and surf the ‘net when traveling in the Caribbean island nation. Voice calls cost $2 per minute, text and multimedia messages cost $0.50 to send but are free to receive, and data costs $2 per megabyte.
T-Mobile’s Cuba roaming costs are slightly cheaper than AT&T’s, which also became available this week. T-Mobile says customers can use WiFi networks in Cuba to call back to the U.S. for free.
T-Mobile customers have been able to place calls from the U.S. to Cuba since May.
