Yes this is correct I have CDMA version ! What does that mean? It means you have a phone using older technology that is being phased out in many parts of the world. When I was shopping for a pay as you go phone to use while in the States I was surprised to see that CDMA was still used as much as it is in the USA. Except for rural/remote areas it is being phased out here in Canada. Still have it where I live, but not that many takers as the phones offered now are older models and the plans aren't great. I made sure to buy my USA one with a sim card.

The cheapest/easiest option for you may be to just purchase a Dominican PrePaid phone and buy from the carrier with the best service in your area of the D.R. I have an Orange phone and my boyfriend has an older Claro one. Both seem to work fine anywhere we've been. I use Orange now as it's cheaper than Claro to call Canada. No contract, just buy minutes as you need them.

Good Luck
