We get to keep our phone once we upgrade to the next one. So, I want a phone that will work with lots of carriers around the world. There is another thread that says a Verizon iPhone is even more compatible than an unlocked AT&T iPhone because it supports more frequencies/bands and protocols. Is that true?
Thanks.
That's more or less how my corporate plan is - their plan, they pay the monthly, contract basis. They had some free phone options (16GB iPhone 6), or some "upgraded" phones for which I was responsible for paying the upcharge, which I did.
Our company is also Verizon or AT&T for corporate plans. Also have a BYOD option, but I'm still company-paid and on Verizon.
We used to have the traditional international plans with the stupidly high rates, 100MB data, etc. That recently (at least as of October) changed to a plan where we can use our existing allotment of data, talk, text overseas with a (monthly, I think) surcharge. Much better and cheaper than on the old legacy international plans, when receiving a few attachments and checking directions once would use up your monthly data.
