    So it is my understand that Rogers launched their domestic roaming today.

    Which means that you can roam on bell/telus when you don't have rogers coverage.

    When you look at networks available it should show
    Rogers
    rogers-ext
    rogers-ext

    On my phone it shows
    Rogers
    Bell
    Telus

    Do any of you have Rogers-ext showing on your passports??

    I am on Bell and when I am at work (coverage is low in the building) I get EXT sometimes. I have for a few months. Been trying to figure out what network that was. It always pesters me about data services when roaming. Guess I know now. All I get in mobile network is EXT not rogers-ext or Rogers. Also when on Telus I get Telus under network.

    Yeah I got the same text notification yesterday.
    And then right after it came, I was asked if I wanted to allow data usage while roaming. I said yes and I was connected to the Rogers-ext with full signal bars where normally I would have little to no cell coverage. I'll be interested to see if it delivers as promised.

    I haven't received any message like that, but the one thing I'd want to check before roaming on someone else's network is whether Rogers will be charging you extra for the privilege.

    Oh I am sure they will. Canadian carriers like to charge for everything and give nothing away. I never let my device roam on any other network. I actually turned off data services while roaming as I don't want any roaming charges.
