Things have changed a bit recently and I for one would not be surprised if BBs management is making some money off the girls there too. No matter how you look at it, the contest costs the chicas money as they get dolled up for the contest, but on the other hand the contest is a great method for advertising their services.

Black Beards uses it to make more money.
They charge the girls to be in the contest so that the girls can market themselves, then make more money on bar drinks, and the guys are more happy to enjoy the entertainment to study the personality of the girls before deciding who their next victim is going to be.
Everybody wins… except for the girls that never get picked…

Posts: 475NG Bikini Contests
Has anybody noticed that New Garden has updated their website since adding the second wing to the hotel?
Who has stayed their recently? I noticed that there is reference to a Bikini contest… with photos! I start to think that NG is trying to steal a page from the Black Beards customer appreciation manual.
The website says in June there was a contest and implies it may be an ongoing thing. Can anybody validate that they have seen one?

What I meant to say is that most Claro and Verizon phones do not have sim cards (however, I have been told that phones with sim cards can be programmed to work with Claro). Additionally, the phones I used had caller i.d., text messaging and voicemail, this appears to be basic on all cell phones in dom rep.
I never checked my voicemail while using a cell phone activated in the Dominican Republic. I don't know what my password is. I am not sure if a default password is assigned to the cell phone when it is activated.
Maybe someone else knows how the initial setup of voicemail works on a newly activated cell phone in dom rep?
The initial or default password to listen your voice mails, might be the last four digits of the phone number. You may want to ask the girl when she activates your phone, how to access voicemail. If the default password for voicemail is the last four digits of the cell phone number, this could be troublesome, a jealous type chica being able to access your voicemails from another cell phone.
I am fairly certain that Claro and Orange cards are not interchangeable. That if you activate a cell for use on Claro that you have to use Claro cards (same for Orange). People in Dom Rep have their opinions about claro and orange, some say you get more time with orange, others say that claro has better reception, I don't know.
I believe incoming calls are free, so you may experience a chica who calls you and tells you to call her back, so that she can conserve her minutes and make you use your minutes. I have had chicas call me and ask me to buy them a card and tell them the code, so that they can replenish their minutes.
I stayed at the Barcello Capella in Juan Dolio and close by this hotel was a small restaurant that had attached to it a small grocery store. While in the store I ask the girl that I needed minutes for my cell phone, she asked me how much in pesos I wanted to spend, I said to her "cinco cien", I was trying to say 500. 500 in spanish is "quinientos". The cashier girl printed out 5, (100) peso receipts with codes to use to add minutes to my cell phone. I had a Claro phone and this is another method whereby you can add minutes to the phone.

I am going to move this to the "Reports of Distinction" thread because you've pretty much settled the "cell phone process" confusion once and for all.
I am even going to print this up to take with me on my next trip. Thanks once again!

A couple of us will be in Sosua for a week starting Jan 22nd. At Rocky's for a few days then moving down the street to Don Andres. If anyone wants to hook up for a beer just send me a PM. Besides the mongering our daily activities will include: La Pasion, daily drinking at Herman's on the beach and nightly hunting at the discos.

I have activated older (from Verizon here) Lg, Motorola (v60) and newer Samsung (sch-u340) phones in DR. In Sosua I used a small cell phone shop that is across the street from the Seabreeze hotel, it is next door to a cyber cafe/call center (maybe three stores over from the baseball field). Very nice chubby girl works there, sometimes with a guy. I gave her two LG phones from Verizon, which she activated. You should bring your passport along with you when you activate them. The girl activated the phones and wrote the new number on a piece of tape which she stuck to the back of the phone. The new number will also show up on the screen of the phone when you choose Phone Info from the menu. Then I bought a Claro card. Credit card size, paper card wrapped in plastic. They come in 250, 500 pesos denominations. Maybe other denominations. Some places can also sell you minutes using some kind of printout that is on piece of paper and looks like a receipt from a grocery store or lottery ticket printout.
After your phone has been activated, buy a claro card (I never used Orange, probably similar procedure for Orange) (many places sell the Claro cards, bodegas, some pharmacies) open the plastic wrapper and remove the card, on the back of the card is a scratch off part (like the instant lottery scratch offs here) under the scratch off part will be a line of maybe 8 or 10 numbers. You add minutes by dialing (for Claro) something like 1133 and press send, you will hear a recording in spanish, I forget if there is a beep or you just enter the number from the back of the Claro card during the message, it is foolproof, easy and I didn't understand the message. Just type in the number from the back of the Claro card you purchased and that's it, some other message will come on, in spanish, saying you have so and so many minutes.
When your minutes are about to run out from the card you purchased, you will hear a message when you dial a number that says you have so many minutes or seconds for that call. Time to buy a new Claro card and add minutes.
I bought several verizon samsung camera phones (sch-u340, prepaid for verizon) at walmart, 30 dollars and they work fine in Dom Rep. I bought two LG Aloha cell phones on Amazon, real cheap and two places in the Dom Rep where unable to program that phone. Supposedly each cell phone has some kind of code and to reprogram it to work in the Dom Rep, the people there need to know the code. They did not know the code for the LG Aloha, so I would stay away from the LG aloha phone for the Dom Rep. I would imagine most popular phones from here, they have the codes for.
I paid about 20 dollars to activate a samsung camera phone in santo domingo at the carrefour department store. The place in Sosua I don't remember paying for activation, but I was with a friend so maybe he paid. Usual activation charge is about 20 dollars.
Many Dominican chicas want the latest greatest cell phone. It is like a fashion statement to them. I really could care less what my cell looks like. But for Dom Rep, you may not want to use a 600 dollar cell phone. On my last trip a friend of mine went to the 24 hour bar named Caperinha, in Sosua at around 4 am and he had one of the Samsung phones (he stayed there alone, I was busy with some chica) and he got drunk and the next day came staggering into the hotel at 11 am, with no phone. I called the number of the cell that morning and some chica answered, she said she got the phone as a gift and that she was in Santo Domingo. Lying sack of sh_t, she or one of friends pilfered it from my friend. 30 dollar phone, no biggy. So for Dom Rep I use inexpensive cells. The older Lg's I have still work, but they were kind of big and bulky, one with a cracked screen, the motorola v60 the battery would die super fast, so I replaced them with the samsungs. Easy too if a group of friends traveling together use the same model phone, so that you don't have to bring many wall or car chargers. I am unmarried, so I get the task of storing the cell phones my married friends use in Dom Rep and the task of transporting them in my luggage, no problem. Any questions let me know.
