I discovered the Samsung verizon flip phone i have is NOT  compatible to use on my trip to Italy

I need one that will accept  the euro converter chip that i will have to buy there .

Any one have suggestions for a phone that would work for me ?

I'm pretty simple  when it comes to phones  ...( i don't want internet )

Are ' basic '  phones   compatible for European use ?

If the phone is marked as global ready, it can be used in Europe. You might have to get the SIM unlocked so you can use another carrier besides the Verizon Wireless international plan.

We would love to help you stay connected while so far from home. May I ask where did you receive the $200.00 quote? We can offer you a variety of plan options via http://www.vzw.com/tripplanner including even pay as you go if the usage will be minimal. Was there a certain device you were able to price via our Basic Phone options at https://www.verizonwireless.com/basic-phones/?
