Re: cheap mobil calls from turkey
Hi G & T, If your phone is unlocked why not just buy a Turkish simcard,
easy enough to purchase over there, & much cheaper to phone home from your mobile.  Happy phoning !
Hope this helps.

Buy a turkcell sim card you can top it up in UK via their web site 2 units to text in Turkiye to other Turkcell 3 units to text to UK 200 units £12 + 50 free cant get much cheaper than that.

Re: cheap mobil calls from turkey
What about having to register the phone though? I've heard of many people buying turkish sim cards and then having their phones locked due to this new law.

Re: cheap mobil calls from turkey
Can we clarify this as we spent £42 in a week on txt and calls RECEIVED from UK.
We have to take an old mobile phone to Turkey with us and buy a Turkcell sim card to put in it.
We then make calls to UK or locally using that mobile and leave it in our apartment for use at every visit?
