Mobike Web when roaming

Moble Web is only available on the Verizon Wireless network and not on any Extended/Roaming areas.

Data is only available off the Verizon network if you're using a data card or a smartphone.

 

Taken from Verizon's website:

If I am roaming throughout the country, can I still use Mobile Web?

** Yes as long as you are in a Verizon Wireless digital area, you will be able to use Mobile Web.

Mobile Web terms & conditions link: Terms & Conditions

Verizon Wireless coverage locator: Coverage Locator - Verizon Wireless

 

Re: Mobile Web when roaming

More like Verizon not allowing it to work... I have Alltel's prepaid service and I'm able to use their Mobile Web while using Sprint and Verizon towers... the technology exists, it's Verizon not allowing plain phones access to nonVerizon towers for data (besides TXT).

 

i have Sprint and ive used data on both ALLTEL and VZW before

 

Verizon does have data roaming agreements with a lot of CDMA carriers, but they simply don't allow data roaming on feature phones, because they don't wanna $$$ data roaming charges, unless you pay for a data plan or have an air card.

 

No offense but verizon is really lacking on this one. I love having data roaming even though it is 1x speed at least it is something.

 

I won't hold my breath for EVDO roaming either although Sprint and Alltel have EVDO roaming in place LOL

I agree with TMobile's slogan: STICK TOGETHER... Verizon needs to get their data roaming agreements going with their CDMA cohorts

 

Verizon just becomes more and more dissappointing every day.........ugh

 

Verizon has at least as many data roaming agreements (if not more) than Sprint has in place. The difference is that Verizon doesn't allow data roaming on Feature phones, just on data devices and air cards. They are sticking together with their cohorts or whatnot, but Verizon simply does not allow data roaming for everyone.

 

and that makes data roaming worthless to simple handset customers.............VZW subs dont care what Verizon has but what Verizon is offering..........there is a serious difference................with Sprint..............wherever there is an agreement............all subs have access

 

Have a PC card and it works great on Extended Network.....

 

I also feel privileged since I have a Q... too bad I cant roam on other EVDO networks. But I'll take what I can get for now. Most folks don't pick a provider based on data... I never envisioned myself using data when I first signed up for Verizon back on 2005; now, I am spending $36 for data access. I tried the Mobile web a few times, but I felt trapped between the red bars and the somewhat limited PCS only (in terms of coverage) network in my area. I probably would have spent the money for mobile web but I didn't feel that it was all that functional because of BREW.

 

oh yeah BREW screws everything over even if it is slightly more efficient then Java

 

you know the beauty of a Myspace is that you can make countdowns for virtually anything.........i just put one up for the end of my contract :lmao:

 

Verizon listens to its customers and has made several adjustments over the past year on suggestions from customers.

 

I think they all listen they just show it in different ways.

 

I guess everyone needs to remember things are on a single case basis nothing is going to be the same for everyone. Good or bad

 

What is the problem with your phone?

 

its a very good argument and with all the restrictions they put on phones i suggest you just get out of there while you can..........come to Sprint its warm and cozy over here in the club

 

Thank you for explaining the problem yeah that sucks sorry man.

 

i think Tmo and VZW are vying for the top when it comes to CS..................they're both very friendly and effective

 

So your ERI/Roaming indicator doesn't work and you want Verizon to do what? They can't duplicate the problem in Your Home area, and it really is not that big of a deal with today's no roaming plans. I don't see your point, sorry.
