Question Posted By: Replies:
International Cell Phones
Posted: Thu May 1, 2008 03:38 PM UTC
OK, so I'm not sure this is the appropriate forum for this question, but I'll go for it!

I'm traveling to Greece for 2 weeks and am thinking of renting a cell phone to use while I'm there. To keep in touch back home, book reservations, etc. It probably won't get a ton of use but will be handy.

Does anyone have any recommendations on how to go about this or services to use?
Is it possible to get one once I arrive or should I take care of it ahead of time?

Thanks!

It might be better to post this in the Greece forum as well, where people who have been there/live there will see it and, hopefully, give you some helpful answers.

All the cell companies have some offers all the time. For around 50euro you can buy a new (simple) cell phone with a sim card that has already 10euros ready for you to make your calls / send sms etc

Then you can buy more credits buying (with 10/20/30euro) almost everywhere in the city.

Finally, if you just want to call for reservations to restaurants/clubs/hotels etc you can just buy a telephone card (3euros) and use it in every cabin phone on the street

take care,
konstantinos
