If I buy a Mexico Combo Pass 65, do I pay roaming charges over and above the time/mb included in the package (e.g., I pay $65 for the package, are there additional roaming charges on top of that?).

To clarify... the pass includes.
So after 150 minutes, 150 text msgs, 150mb of data, or 30 days... the charges will come. Don't forget about your local taxes.
Savings over pay-per-use rates: $1,000
My problem would be the 150mb of data. That does not last long looking up maps and streaming video.

Thanks XL. I wanted to ensure there was no 'fine print' I missed, such as 'roaming charges apply over and above your pass limits'!! Seems you've answered that! Thanks so much!

I'm OK with the GST/HST taxes...and expect to be charged that. Excellent question regarding in-country surcharges...Telus could do a bit better job highlighting any other underlying costs to avoid surprises (e.g., often it is the fine print that can sink you!). As for data...I'm bringing my laptop with me and I won't be viewing pics/vids on my mobile. It's really just for phone usage as I'll be staying in a remote area and communicating with friends about an hour away. Good advice to check my account regularly...will definitely do that!
