  Yep, and I can verify my phone number didnt change when roaming, people could still call me.

    Usually the phone number changes though. My phone number is 070Xxxx… here in Sweden, but my folks in law need to call 004670xxxx to call me unless they are visiting in which case 070xx works again

      You’re right it depends on the definition of phone number, and I edited the original post to try and be more clear that I meant the phone number including the country code and area code.

      If you’re talking about something other than country/area code though, then that’s news to me.

    Your roaming is the extra configuration you speak of, and is usually an extra fee……
