Traveling to Punta Cana - Nexus 6 & Coverage

[mjprel 5]

So, I'm leaving to Punta Cana Sunday morning. 

 

What are my options for cell service on a Nexus 6?  Haven't even asked USCC yet - I know when I was last in India they had no option for me, but that was on an older Galaxy phone. 

 

Is it as simple as buying a sim card locally when I get there? 

 

I don't plan on really having to use it for calls, but will have someone dog sitting and with elderly parents I like the option to be able to talk to someone rather than rely on email.

You certainly can buy a local sim when you get there, it's a nexus, it will work just fine.

Interesting. Landed earlier today and I'm roaming. Disabled data- I'm sure I'd be paying through the nose.
