With news of Telus and Bell increasing their roaming rates for U.S. and international travel next week, Rogers appears to be taking advantage by offering a spring break roaming promo instead.
“Heading away for March Break? As a special thank you, Rogers wireless customers enjoy 1 Roam Like Home day on us (based on Eastern Time) between March 6 – 31, 2023,” says a new feature on the Rogers website.
Rogers says those with a Rogers Connections Mastercard can get 5 Roam Like Home days included at no cost.
Beyond the Rogers website, the telecom has also been texting customers notifying them of the promo, such as iPhone in Canada reader, Allen.
“We appreciate you and want to offer you an exclusive gift. It’s our way of saying thank you for being such a loyal customer!”, reads the Rogers text message.
Rogers says the free Roam Like Home day will be offered through a bill credit.
The promo is only available for those on an eligible Rogers postpaid wireless plan. Rogers fine print says, “most enterprise plans, monthly plans that include roaming services as well as prepaid accounts are excluded.”

One day of Roam Like Home credit..please, don’t give everything away now to your special customers.
I have this offer. It’s laughable! I leave for the U.S. later this week. I have purchased & installed an Esim from Tello mobile in the U.S. for approx C$25. I get 1 months unlimited calling & texting, + 5g of data, together with unlimited international calling to 60 countries, including Canada, cancel anytime. Rogers, Bell etc continue to rip us off!
I’ve used eSIM for TMobile where through the app you sign up, install eSIM, enter CC and pay for period and data you need. I cannot recall but i think it was around the same $25-30 for 10 or 12GB.
The only thing i couldn’t figure out and screwed up, i turned off my canadian SIM and my iMessage account connected to Canadian number turned off on the phone so i couldn’t get iMessages until i turned on Canadian SIM again. still cannot find good isntructions on how to keep iMessage for canadian number while using data and calls with eSIM from US.
I think if you make sure you have all your contact details (phone nos, emails addresses etc) in the IMessage settings you should still get all the messages. Previously I’ve switched sims when out of the country & I think I still got everything, but this is my first time with an esim so won’t know for certain until I start using it.
Or get a US e sim
