Need carrier advice for phone calls only, maybe calls to the Dominican Republic..

[Guest killabee44]

Hi all, I'm looking for advice on a carrier and a handset for my mother. She will only be making phone calls and very few texts.

She calls the Dominican Republic once or twice a week using a calling card from home, so the option to call there for an added fee would be great.

I also need advice on a handset that isn't a complete pos..

I was thinking of Verizon since they have great coverage, but their fees would probably be too high.

I'm posting here because I wasn't sure where the best place to post would be. If I made an error, mod please move this post to the proper forum.

Thanks!
