Do you have a cell phone? What do you use it for? Do you have a land line also?

Looks like VOIP is the way to go for long distance, but I was wondering what is popular for local calling.

Thanks!

Kara

Re: Phones

Brad and I have cell phones. We also have BroadVoice which is like Vonage, but we have their plan where it doesn't cost more than the monthly fee to call Korea, just in case.

Re: Phones

We both have a cell phone and Vonage. His cell is a contract phone that he uses mostly for work and to call me. My cell is a card phone that I mostly just use to call my husband. We use his cell phone as our main phone for everything here. I don't think I know anyone who has a land based line.

Re: Phones

We have two cell phones, his and hers that we use for local calling.

I only know of one lady here who has a Korean landline phone..she gets billed for every call on the landline, so now uses her cell phone exclusively. It's much more convienent and economical.

Re: Phones

Hello once again group.

I finally arrived in Osan, I am going on an Off Base housing tour tommorrow, I want to thank everyone for the help they gave me before I got here, now to my phone question.

Does anyone have a recommended place to get a cell phone? I wanted to get a phone for me and my wife, that was really inexpensive, we do not need camera phones or phones with mp3 players. We need just simple phones that will not break the bank.

I attempted to go off base, and non of the good phone places outside of the base (Across the bridge) spoke english :-(.

Thanks for the help!
