I called Maho and they said nothing picked up there. What if any cell phones work in Cruz Bay?

Thanks!

They all work in Cruz Bay. My plan is on the Sprint Network and it works fine, wife's is At&T and it does too. Just be careful on the north shore that your phone doen't pick up a BVI tower, or any call taken or made will be international.

Some phones do work near Maho, but I think it depends on the antenna in your phone. I've been with people who are on my network but they couldn't get a signal whereas I could. Just make sure you turn off roaming or make sure roaming notification is turned on.

Indeed, check to make sure your are not picking up the BVI tower when you make your calls or it shall be a VERY EXPENSIVE call!
