AT&T Go Phone

I currently live in Michigan (USA) and I would like to call someone in Montreal (Canada). I have two at&t Motorola Go phones which are both unlimited calling as long as it is to at&t customers. If I send one of these phones to my friend in Canada can we both still talk unlimited? I am not sure if it will work because I know at&t is not available in Montreal and I am not sure about the coverage. Is there any other way I can call that long of distance without paying a fortune?

Thank You For Your Time.
 
Mobile-to-mobile for the called party located in the United States works for calls from all destinations if AT&T Mobilty can determine the identity of the calling phone. There are two strikes against the party in Canada:
1. GoPhones do not work at all in Canada.
2. The calling party has to be in the United States for mobile-to-mobile to count for both outgoing calls and incoming calls.

GoPhones can only roam in Mexico.
 
Only the GoPhone Pick your Plan service has any type of international coverage. Both GoPhone types do offer international calling, but only the one has the international coverage.

Mobile To Mobile calling is void when outside of the United States. It may be free for you, but not for the person in Canada. Also, in Canada, once they run out of airtime, you can't purchase the cards there.
 
Oops, my bad. I see where that was now.

It is very odd, most carriers do not have roaming in Mexico, but they have roaming in Canada. Verizon just went from Mexican/Canadian roaming to ONLY Canadian roaming. Maybe CDMA is weaker in Mexico.
 
AT&T Mobility is going after the Hispanic market in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California. There are a lot of cash customers in those states.

This will not work for one major reason. GoPHone does not roam internationly. So activatin it here and then sending it to your friend will not work, Activating it in Canada is not an option. And unless you have the World Connect feature( PYP only) it will be costly. M2M,Ulimited talk or Nights and Weekends will not cover these charges. But it doesnt realy matter because there is only a .10
