Tracfone does not have any roaming charges. I believe they work with all of the ATT roaming partners. Not all Tracfones ship with ATT sims, in fact I think they prefer T-mobile at this time. For our phone I went out of my way to get an ATT sim. There's info on the Howard Forums Tracfone group on how to tell which SIM goes with which phone. I don't think the SIM type affects the coverage area for voice calls, but could affect data access. I'm subject to correction on this.
Fine print: Many years ago, I'd guess more than 10 years, Tracfone did have a roaming surcharge when on a non-ATT tower. The surcharge goes with the phone, so a 10+ year old phone could still carry the surcharge. No risk of this with a new phone.
