So off to Oz on the weekend for a week and I am going to buy the $20 roaming pack . I'm wondering though does my prepaid $19 plan go on hold while I'm away. Not a biggie but can't find any mention of it on their site

Nothing happens. You're not using it while you're out of the country. It'll be waiting for you on your return.

People often mistake me for an adult because of my age.

Keep calm, and carry on posting.

I suppose what I meant to say was does the date it renews extend by a week while I am using and paying for roaming?

It renews on the normal schedule.

a roaming pack is an add on, it adds on to your current plan, which doesnt change.

depending on how long you go away for you could pause your plan, but that only really come into affect if you go away for more than a month.

You can't pause a $19 combo.
