Interestingly on this subject....
Whilst in the US, my family members kept getting the odd text from Smarty that their plans didn't include roaming there, and that a "paid add on is required for this action". Which I did think suggested something was going on, as those texts only pop through when you make a chargeable action (which is then declined due to monetary reasons).
They all use iPhones, I saw no extra charges for use on my iD bill at all.
Another oddity was the roaming partners....
My iD and Three SIMs both connected to all networks, Three PAYG was steered towards AT&T but my iD SIM seemed to pick up Verizon 5G most of the time.
Smarty was outright locked to TMobile, no other networks would connect, which I found odd given on paper they have the same agreements.
VoLTE did work on TMobile with smarty.
