Hi!
Well I have Cingular. I don't have the international plan YET lol,
but definitely plan on getting it before I leave. There is usually a
three month wait (90 days) in order to qualify for the international
calling plan, but another woman I spoke to, who actually sounded like
she KNEW what she was talking about told me to call at the end of
December and ask them to fill out this sheet for me that waives the 3
month thing.
To call Honduras from the U.S. it is .39 to a landline phone there and
.40 to a cell phone. I think that's a pretty good deal. I have the
Motorola RAZR V3i phone which you can use ANYWHERE around the world
because it has all that technical stuff (something about quad bands or
something? Don't really know how to explain it, just know that I can
use it anywhere in the world even in Honduras!)
As for roaming while in Honduras and calling the U.S., if you have the
International plan it is $1.99, which is A LOT I think, but if you
don't have the plan it goes up to $2.99 per minute! Ridiculous!
As for Roatan, I don't know much about it BUT that is also where I
hope to go to. I've waited for like EVER to see crystal clear
tropical-colored blue water!
Well, I hope that you get a better international plan, that sounds
expensive and I don't blame you for wanting a more cheaper one! And I
am SURE someone on here can give you very helpful advice and ideas
about Roatan!
