Firstly to clarify, receiving SMS does not incur any roaming charges. However, any data within a MMS would be considered roaming data. In addition, rich communication services (RCS) messages and iMessages would also be considered roaming data.
If you do not wish to travel using Fido Roam, you would need to contact customer service to opt-out of the service. Alternatively, you might consider sending @FidoSolutions a PM. Once they verify some information, they'll also be able to access your account. In addition, they can also be contacted via Live Chat, Facebook, or Twitter. Those methods can be accessed via the contact page posted above.
Once you are confirmed to have the service disabled on your account, your usage abroad would be on a pay-per-use basis. If you choose to travel without Fido Roam, you might consider disabling data and roaming data as those charges can add up quite quickly. You can view the pay-per-use rates here.
What plan do you have? You should note that some plans do not allow for roaming. You would need to verify that your plan is compatible with roaming.
In addition, you might consider verifying whether your phone is compatible with the local networks at your destination.
Hope this helps 😀
Cheers
