Have you looked into cost before doing this?

Verizon charges $1.99 per minute for calls (sent and received) .50 per text sent, .05 per text received, and .02 per KB for data which is super expensive - That works out to more than $20,000 per GB!

Did you know that T-Mobile gives you unlimited texting and basic data for free to customers when they travel to JA? Calling is .20/minute (and free over WiFi) and high speed data can be purchased for $100 per GB.
