Many of your USA cell phones will "work" in Costa Rica these days. With ATT or T Mobile cell phone, you might be able to roam on the CR network. The problem with roaming is that exactly. You're roaming! Sometimes you get connection and sometimes you don't. Apart from coverage and connection issues, there is an extremely high when roaming in Costa Rica. Both ICE and your USA carrier will have to make money on this service, so you should expect to pay up to $2.99 per minute. The other problem is that all calls look the same to the carrier, meaning local and international calls, therefore you pay the same rate for both. You also pay that rate for incoming calls, like in the US. As for Verizon, the network is not even compatible with Costa Rica's ICE network. Verizon runs on a CDMA network. If you do not have a Blackberry Tour World phone you will have to upgrade to it and still pay $2.99 per minute. We actually had a customer report this to us in the last week.
If you need to stay connected, at the most affordable prices, the best option is to rent a cell phone from us, Costa Rica Cellular Connection. We offer the best rates and service plus our phones are provided by ICE, You will have coverage everywhere in Costa Rica!
