If your phone allows two lines for the network name it will say the network name on the top line and whether it is 'global' or the 'US' like thus:
T-Mobile
Global
or
T-Mobile
US.

So you can know if you are OK or not.

Also, one of them (the US IMSI) won't work outside the US or Canada anyway so you're usually in the clear, especially outside North America.
