Can't get Verizon reps to get their story straight
Hello folks,
New Tour owner here. I was leaning towards the Bold because my boss prefers AT&T but Verizon made much better sense for my overall usage. We have some pretty specific requirements but there's one that is stumping us both.
I know the Tour can be tethered domestically. Our company requires that we have the ability to tether internationally. Although my boss has no problems tethering on her older model Blackberry through AT&T with no overage charges, AT&T told me, it's not possible. I suspect what they really mean is "we don't have a plan for international tethering" bu it's obviously possible with the risk of incurring overage charges. I grilled Verizon next. Every one of othem said yes, except their national and global CS, that the Tour is tetherable internationally. And yes, I would incur charges.
Now, here's my question, is it really? Set aside the overage charges, is it technically possible? There may be very few situations (1-2 days a year, my boss much much more than that) where I may be stuck at a client site who can't provide me internet access where tethering would be really convenient.
I have the BB unlimited data plan and will turn on the international BB unlimited data plan prior to my travels. Please clear things up for us.
