Question

i have a global phone and  plan but I just landed in Colombia and can't get a signal

Answer 1

there are are no 3 switches, you have a choice between cdma,gsm, or global network. I appreciate you trying to help but you shouldn't talk down to someone when you don't know what you're talking about.
anyway. I couldnt call that number because my phone wasn't connecting to the roaming towers.. Guess why
becsuse the douchebag at verizon I talked to at customer service (*611) before I left the airport In USA forgot to turn on the global option on, on his end even though he said he did before we hung up. What an aggravating experience.
And by the way I was right, I had to select  gsm network after Verizon cleared my phone for international roaming and manually select the company Verizon has a roaming deal with "Claro" so I was in exactly the right area and you were completely wrong The reason it failed to register was because verizon didnt authorize international roaming. Too bad you didn't know that, that would have been helpful. you trying to give me advice is like a nascar fan telling a professional racecar driver that he's doing it wrong And that he should only do the things he suggested..
