Will i get service at these places, or will I have to purchase the overpriced ATTmx package?

I got service, but it cost me .50 cents per minute to talk, and $1.00 per text message to send or recieve. I have Verizon. Some people buy a pre paid Mexico phone, I ended up downloading an app that let me make calls through Wi-Fi, and I told everyone if they text messaged me I would shoot them ;) Good luck!

Hi~

I also have AT&T.

Depending on where you get your surgery done, they should have a phone in your room w/ a local #. I called out on my room phone all the time (I was alone). I also received calls to my room. Of course the Marriott was having "issues" w/ their wi-fi connection (to apple devices) while I was there. But they also have a toll free # where you can have people call & they forward to your room.

Surprisingly, I texted all the time and the only difference was about $10 while I was in Mexico.

I was afraid to look at my bill!

Best of luck to you!!

Tango was the app I used. I think Viber only works to make calls to other people that have Viber. One of my firneds has Skype, and she used that. There are many apps out there.

You could add some international data plans to your phone, but may not be worth it. Blackberry is the only one with an international data plan for $20 all others you go int'l roaming if you use their data networks. I believe you can also add an international texting plan for about $5 or $10.

WiFi should work though (normally at the Marriotts). I do recommend turning off all the automatic data "push/pull" on the phone. I had an unpleasant surprise once by incurring about $100 in international data roaming charges in Germany over a 12 hour period as my phone updated automatically everything on it's lovely 3/4G network.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
