I’m traveling to Mexico and I want to purchase a mobile phone calling card once I arrive in Mexico. I hope to use it to make phone calls from Mexico to the United States while traveling. What are the rates and costs for these calling cards? Will they be cheaper then using Cingular’s $0.99/minute International roaming?
I don´t think so. The international roaming here (MXtoUS) on Telcel (the cheapest) is a dollar a minut plus one more dollar of long distance. And because there is no legal fee stablished by government they charge you double and you can´t do anything.
If you want, you can buy a kit called Amigo Kit from 50usd aprox. but i recommend you to use it for SMS. Calls, just if it is very necesary.
Another option is to bring your own cellphone and use it with SMS and only very necesary calls.
Good luck!!
just use ur cell phone
