Unlocked Verizon 9650 traveling to UK and Europe

[greenythebeast]

Hello all,

I will be traveling to the UK and Europe over the summer with my unlocked Verizon 9650. I would like to purchase a sim card while I am over there and am looking for some suggestions based on the stuff I need. First, I need international minutes since I will be calling to the USA. Second, it would be nice to have some data usage. Do I still get push email while using a sim card from a european provider? Thanks for your help.

About the calls to US, i can give you this tip -
buy a local sim card to use there, just the simplest thing you can get with good local prices that will benefit while you there.
then look in cell phone stors for calling cards to make calls to the US, this is very cheap, you can buy this card and use it with your local sim (you cal local and then press the card's password and the international call goes out of the card tariff).

this is great way to overcome a lot of money waste.

enjoy your stay in the UK
