Cell Phone Travel question: I need a Phone in Mexico city


Science Abuse

Recommended Posts

I'm taking a weekend trip to Ciudad Mexico and I need communication while I'm there.

I went to Switzerland last year with assurances from T Mobile that my phone would work. It didn't.

I sprechen a bit, so I wasn't fucked there.

I do NOT habla, so I need to be in touch with my contacts in Mexico.

 

What is the simplest, cheapest, SUREST way to do that for 4 days? I dont want to get kidnapped.

Buy a pre-paid phone either here or when you get to mexico. They make international ones and you can save them for your next trip out of the country. I would just get a basic one that makes a phone call and nothing else.

So I'm guessing you're still on T-Mo? I don't know why it didn't work for you because I've used my t-mo phone in Switzerland before AND I used it when I went to Cabo in Mexico so I know it will work. That's why I'm on t-mo to begin with because I like to travel.

 

What phone do you have?

 

EDIT: Also make sure that you have the International option checked in your account settings, you can do it online and it's free.
