Question

Do at&t phones work in the bahamas?

Answer 1

Only if u have a gsm phones becuase we have only gsm towers in the bahmas, if not then you can go to an at&t and get this chip put in your phone so you can use it in any country it is about $20

Answer 2

AT&T phones work out of the country but you must purchase this from AT&T.  It is in the vicinity of $10.00. This charge must be carried for an entire month at which point you can then cancel.  If you are only going away for a long weekend it might not be worth it.  If you travel internationally frequently then it is well worth the money.

Answer 3

not sure about that, but do know that i just got our visa bill from when we were in bahamas - a 5 minute phone call that we charged to our visa came to $66!!!!

we did buy a phone card while there, the first time we used it, we got the answering machine, didnt leave a message, but then went to use the phone card a 2nd time (thinking we still had time left) (it was a $10 phone card) and it said there was nothing left on it.  everything about bahamas burned my butt, i will not go back
