Say my billing cycle is 1st of every month.
From 1st to 10th, I'll be in US. And 11th to 30th, I'll be in Asia. Will I be charged:
1. (10 days X $7) + (5 days X $12) = $130 (This is what I've been told Fido rep)
2. (10 days X $7) + (15 days X $12) = $250
Which will apply to me?
And if I have the $7 value pack with premium calling rate, there will be no additional roaming or long distance fee other than that of the premium calling rate fee right?
Eg. Calling a China number, the usual premium rate is $0.02/min if I'm calling from Canada. But if I'm roaming with Fido roam in India and I call a China number, will I get charged $0.02/min only? Or $0.02/min plus roaming and long distance?

I did. But it's not clear. Very vague.
I think this answers your question regarding the billing: "If you use Fido Roam both in the U.S. and internationally within the same billing cycle, you will be charged for up to 15 days of Fido Roam per zone — that is, up to 15 days for U.S travel and another 15 days for international travel. For example, if you use your device for 5 days in the U.S. then 7 days in an eligible European destination within the same billing cycle, you will be charged a total of 12 days for Fido Roam.
If you are travelling within a single Fido Roam zone (U.S. or International), the daily charge will be applied only once within a 24-hour period. For example, if in the same 24-hour period you travel between Germany, France and Italy, you will be charged the Fido Roam International rate only once."
This question seems to answer your query about international calling:
"Will long distance add-ons work with Fido Roam?
If you're enrolled in Fido Roam, your plan features and add-ons will work like they normally do. Any international long distance Add-ons you have on your account will apply for calls made to international numbers outside of the destination you’re visiting. If you are visiting a destination not covered by Fido Roam, standard roaming rates will apply for international long distance calls."
