Our verizon cell phones worked. We didn't turn our phones off--we figured they wouldn't work in Bermuda but we left them on---didn't have a clock in our room, so we used the cell phone to check the time.

Lo and behold . . . the phone rings one night while we are sitting in our room (we were docked)---daughter decided on a whim to try to call us. Had no problems hearing her either. She passed this little tidbit onto the rest of the family . . . so of course they all had to try it to see if really worked

yes roaming at .69 per minute...I have the bills to prove it...:)

So, if you leave your phone turned on, but don't make or receive calls are you still charged a roaming fee?

[smeyer418]

You are only charged if you answer the call or call(including calling your voice mail)...

I had my work issued phone which did not work in Bermuda, nor the sea day's. I was first able to make contact on the way home approx 8pm the night before disembakkation. Same when coming up the East Coast.

I made a couple of quick calls with my Verizon. Total Roaming Charges were $2.58. Hey, you're on vacation, call someone who you know will be envoius, but don't call from the dining room (LOL)! Actually the speed on the call and the clarity was better than here in Alexandria. Go figure. oh yeah, if you use Verzon dail *228 to get the most recent upgrade to your phone's software.

ENJOY!
