BASKING RIDGE, N.J - Hispanic Heritage month is officially observed starting today, September 15th, through October 15th, but Verizon recognizes and celebrates the contributions of the community every day, all year long. There are 62 million people of Hispanic descent living in the United States, including Verizon’s Hispanic employees, customers and the communities we serve and we make it a priority to provide the best value, offers and experiences to them all year round.

Verizon makes it easier for customers relocating to the U.S. from another country to get access to device financing

Verizon is the first carrier in the U.S. to partner with Nova Credit to provide customers new to the country access to the best device financing on the network America relies on. 

With this partnership, newcomers from eligible countries including: Mexico, Brazil, Dominican Republic, Spain, Canada, India, Kenya, Australia, Nigeria, Philippines, South Korea, and the United Kingdom, have the ability to use the credit history they’ve already built in their home country to finance a device for 0% interest with credit approval – opening up opportunities beyond bringing your own device or prepaid phone plans. For more information visit Verizon.com/internationalcredit or your nearest Verizon store.

Bringing families closer together: Call to 17 countries in Latin America including Cuba - at no additional cost

Verizon knows how important it is to keep in touch with loved ones who may be outside of the U.S. With Global Choice, the international calling plan that provides a select number of long distance calling minutes, new and existing qualified customers can access up to five hours per month to call their friends and loved ones in one of 17 countries in Latin America at no additional charge, with discounted rates for additional hours. Verizon is the only carrier to include a block of monthly international calling minutes to Cuba at no additional cost. And, as always, talk and text to Mexico and Canada is included on select 5G Unlimited plans. To sign up or to learn more about Global Choice visit: verizon.com/globalchoice
