Buenos Aires Is it more expensive to call a Bs As cell phone or landline?
Posted: Sat March 22, 2008 07:17 PM UTC
I've been told that it costs the same to make an international call (from the USA) to a cell phone or a landline in Buenos Aires, but I find this difficult to believe. Can anyone confirm please? If it is more expensive to call a cell phone, it is significantly more? Many thanks.

it depends on a lot of things.

some international calling services will charge more to call a cell phone, even in buenos aires. the same may even be true of skype (i'd have to check).
but i think if you call directly from a phone in the USA it is the same cost to cell or landline. but don't quote me on that.

It is MUCH more expensive to call an Argentine cell phone as opposed to a land line.
