TELECOM Digest OnLine - Sorted: Roaming Charges

Roaming Charges

I have a situation regarding my cell phone company. I contacted my
cell phone service and discussed "roaming" charges before I went cross
country. The phone company told me if the cell phone didn't show
"roaming" on the phone that the call would stand as a local
call. Well, I just got the bill and it is 300 bucks, full of "roaming"
charges. I swear only one call indicated "roaming." Should I pay the
bill and shutup and chalk it up as experience or should I refuse to
pay the bill? And, in the meantime, how do I make phone calls to
friends and family back home -- without racking up more "roaming"
charges?
