| My family and i are travelling to the Lapta in a couple of weeks for a holiday and would like to use our mobile phones. Is it easy to obtain and use a local SIM card and what is the cost? |

| Hi Thanks for the replies VRs-Dude and Cypriot. Telsim or Turkcell. My mobile is already unlocked. Do you just replace the sim card and away you go? I know in spain there are instructions to follow and are often in Spanish. |

| We bought a turkcell sim card, staff in shop were really helpful and put it in my phone and registered it. Now i just swop sim cards on the flight there or back. Texting to UK only uses 3 credits and you get 100 credits when you buy the sim card. When i need to buy credit, staff always do that for me too! i always find a smilke and 'Lutfen' goes a long way!! |
