Every time we go to Bermuda I always have a problem using my cell phone. I always call ahead and switch plan to international, they give me instructions as to what to do and can never call home etc...

What you are doing wrong is taking your cell phone on vacation with you, just sayin'.

Some need or they won't be able to go on vacation.

make sure you phone has roaming enable. If you have a non-smartphone, it might have problems with picking up a signal from a non verizon tower in bermuda.

Call Verizon and have them review the calling procedures as well as your phone settings.

I have found that when my Verizon Galaxy S3 phone switched from my us home to the ship's service, or from the ship to Bermuda, I need to actually power off (reboot) the phone in order to make calls.

 

I do not have any problem with texting, just calls.
