Will my phone work in the Bahamas?

Roaming?

Thanks,

Batelco (Nassau, the Bahamas) is TDMA and AMPS, while Verizon is CDMA and
AMPS. Your phone will work there in the AMPS mode however, Batelco is not a
roaming partner with Verizon. You will need to go to the local Batelco
office in person and make roaming arrangements. This will probably involve
assigning a Batelco number to your phone for the duration of your visit.

you should be OK- you may have to set it to the "A" mode if you are not getting
a signal.. ( settings- system settings, etc.- )
you will get roaming of at least .69-.99 /minute, but I would call cust care
(*611) before you go to double check on that-
