I recently was in the UK and didn't want to be charged for data usage (I could easily get data from WiFi hotspots). On my Samsung S7 phone I selected "Deny data roaming" option and thought I was good to go........ until I got $50 travel pass fees put onto my account. I was expecting one day of travel pass for a phone call I made but not the other 4 days. I called Verizon customer service to complain only to be told that Deny data roaming is not enough - you also have to turn off all mobile data. The operator credited me $20 but that still let me $20 which I did not use.
My question is : This is really misleading - deny data roaming should either do what it says or be changed. Verizon customer service attitude was - it is your fault because you didn't call us before you left (which I didn't because "deny data roaming" seemed quite clear). I like Verizon but being treated like that just makes me want to find another service provider (when I told that to the operator I was told all the other operators would do the same thing).
Thanks Verizon.
Travel Pass is charged for when you use your phone for calls, texts or data in a country besides the USA. Did you use the phone for text messages or calls during the trip?
I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.
I made a phone call on the first day (which was why I was expecting 1 day of travel pass). Why does selecting "deny data roaming" not stop all data?
The only sure way I know to prevent usage is keeping the phone in Airplane Mode.

It doesn't denly all data, because that only denies "Roaming Data." Truthfully, this is not Verizon's fault, but a lack of understanding how the system works. In the grand scheme of things, $20 is nothing and appreciarte the freedom that cell phones give you. It used to be you had to wait hours to make an international call through an operator.
