Andrea:
I have returned the phone and charger, via FedEx, tracking number:540201710007546. Once again, thank you for the great service!
The phone worked great and coverage was much better than expected.
I consider your willingness to share your knowledge of Costa Rica a precious gift which made my stay there easier and more enjoyable.
Without reservation, I will recommend yourservice to everyone that I discuss our trip with. It has been a pleasure to do business with you.I would be honored tohave my comments included on your "Testimonials" page.

US Cellular Phones in Costa Rica
Hola,
We just got back from another wonderful trip to Costa Rica and wanted to share a few things with our customers. Although, once again, we were told by our Verizon rep's that our Verizon cell phones would work down there, they did not. We we're about 99% sure that Verizon's phones wouldn't work, as we've been told by countless customers that they wouldn't, but we decided to verify this for ourselves. Most of Verizon's phones are CDMA phones, so they are completely non-compatible with the networks down there. We end up getting a lot of business from Verizon and Sprint customers that were told they're phones would roam on the network down there, only to find out they wouldn't. In the event that your US carrier can roam on the Costa Rica ICE network, you would have to have a GSM phone that is a quad band phone to work. Most of the US phones are not. If are fortunate enough to be able to roam down there, be careful on the per minute rates, as most cellular companies charge over $2.00/minute to call back to the US.
The second thing we want to share, a bit of a teaser.. but we are working towards a partnership with ICE (the only cellular and telecommunications company in Costa Rica) to offer a prepaid service. We will have more information on this shortly, but we believe this is great news to see ICE moving forward with their services. It is also a sign that Costa Rica Cellular Connection is being recognized by our clients and vendors for superior service in our industry. This should go a long way to helping us in accommodating the demand we have created by offering a trustworthy service to our customers over the years.
At Costa Rica Cellular Connection we want to make renting a cell phone for Costa Rica as easy as possible , without hassle. Costa Rica Cellular Connection offers the best and most convenient cell phone rentals for Costa Rica, providing our customers with great mobile phones, and coverage in over 75% of the country. Don't hesitate to contact us to make a reservation for a cell phone or if you need help planning your trip!
