I have Verizon service and when I arrive to SXM, I turn off the airplane mode and just turn off my cellular data. Then I can receive important calls and messages. No charge for unanswered calls, so I return them on Wifi calls or FaceTime. The charge for incoming text messages is 5 cents. For a 3 week stay, my bill has always been less than $20.

No help on the mail... I know they offer the free service to email what they are holding, but not sure that would be a big help if you couldn't open it. We have all the bills that we can put to autopay so we don't have much that isn't automatic these days.
