|
|
I'm going to have a 6 week training and seminar in U.K. and Germany and I was wondering if I need to buy a sim card to call back home (Philippines) and the U.S.
I'm on a tight budget so anything I can save will surely help to balance my expenses. I was thinking of getting a voip because I'm bringing my notebook with me but a lot of them are yearly plans and not sure which one to get. I am also thinking of phone cards but not sure if that would be too much of a hassle. |

| Okay I've been reading and looking around the net. I think I will drop the sim card option as I've read that calling from Europe could be more expensive than phone cards. |

Onesuite mobile rates to Philippines is not bad at 16.5 cpm. Landline is much better at 12.5 cents. |
