I need a cell phone as I travel to Ukraine? Help?

By admin · Monday, March 29th, 2010

I live in the USA, have cingular, and want a cell phone for a week or so while I am in Ukraine. Cingular wants $3.49 per minute its crazy. Do you know of a company that rents a phone for a lot cheaper?

If you have a cell with a sim chip you can take it any where in the world and change the cingular chip with a local one, when you get there just go to a phone store and ask for the sim chip and they will probably be happy to help you from there. The cost varies from place to place, in Kuwait they are 75$ but the Philippines they are like 10$ so you will be looking at some where in between there, I would recommend buying a international phone card with a Ukraine number because long distant calls will still cost an arm and leg.

I suppose that $3.49 per minute is the price for a phonecall
not for renting a cellphone.
