| More Information and Resources |
Keeping in touch while in Spain can be very a frustrating and expensive experience without an international cell phone and Spain SIM card.
Sometimes a payphone takes coins (But how many is anybody's guess!!!), other times a proprietary calling card and still others only a credit card will do with accompanying instructions that would take a week to understand.
Spain cellular phone rentals can significantly cut down on the frustration of calling home while abroad but the airtime rates would bankrupt all but the thickest of wallets. Airtime rates for a Spain cell phone rental can typically start at $1.50 and may be as high as $2+/minute.
Think you got a deal on your world phone and plan on doing some international roaming? With international roaming charges the airtime rate you will pay is out of this world.
The Spain prepaid SIM chip is a quick and easy way to convert your existing world phone into a prepaid Spain cell phone for Spain and as discussed is more economical then a Spain cell phone rental. For your next assignment or vacation in Spain, this SIM chip (combined with an unlocked GSM World cell phone) helps you stay connected while avoiding those international roaming surcharges that always accompany your 'home' SIM card while abroad.
