Default Verizon Blackberry email in Canada

Please Login to Remove!

Can anyone help me with accessing my email on my BB 7250 from Verizon when I am traveling in Canada? email works fine in all states but shuts off when I cross the border anywhere in Canada. Verizon say they don't have email coverage in Canada. They didn't tell me that when I signed up for a 2 year contract. Any suggestions?

Verizon doesn't recognize any part of the world outside of the United States. Maybe little parts of Mexico.

If you are going to be using a BB outside of the US, I'd suggest another carrier.

CDMA carriers do not generally have data roaming agreements with each other as they are all not standardized. GSM carriers adhere to worldwide standards which is why a T-Mobile blackberry works the same regardless of location or country.

BTW, Sprint has the same problem as Verizon. They work fine while on the home network, but once you leave the home network, they're a really expensive basic phone...no email, no text, nothing enhanced.

I was told that my Telus CDMA will work in the US on the Verizon network.
