change prepaid plan to postpay

I am going to China and I need to add the international day pass. I wonder if I can change the prepaid plan to postpay. Thank you!

In order to switch from prepaid to postpaid you have to migrate your phone number in a corporate store.  Depending on your credit qualifications, you may not be allowed to roam right away.

Prepaid does not roam in China. If you do switch to postpaid, you probably won’t be allowed to roam for 60 days.

Good morning, @Lynnz2001. This is a great question to ask in advance of travelling internationally, and we're happy to help. 

As @sandblaster mentioned, switching to a postpaid account may actually result in more fees or restrictions while you are abroad. It sounds like our International Calling Add-Ons might be a better option for you. You can also check out our AT&T PREPAID International Calling Rates. 

 

If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to reach out. And thank you for being a part of AT&T Community and Forums. 

Goodacre, AT&T Community Specialist

@Lynnz2001 Ignore ATTHelp. The international calling add-on is for international calls from the US. That add-on will not work in China. Once again, prepaid does not roam in China.
