I was burned last year by AT&T’s prohibitive roaming rates and so last time I flew out I called AT&T to set up a world package. But, as you’ll find, discovering the world packages page is almost impossible on AT&T’s website and the average user will probably have to get burned just like I did before they figure things out.

Well, AT&T just decided to be proactive and sent out a one page document to all iPhone users describing the World Packages. It’s succinct and includes some helpful tips like turning off Fetch and Data Roaming. It’s better late than never, I suppose, and should save some unsuspecting study abroad students next month.

To sign up you have to call 1-866-662-4548. You cant’ do it online.
