Folks, I know the subject of Mobile roaming through Turkcell SIM in a UK phone has been discussed before but I need some updated advice.



I'm due in NC next week and would like to know where I can look-up the charges for a Turkcell SIM in a UK registered mobile handset. My mobi has never been locked into any particular provider.



Also, how much "hassle" is it to actually make the purchase and get the thing doing what it is supposed to do please. I will need it to work in English.



My UK comms provider provides a roaming package for NC but it isn't particularly cheap at 81p per minute.



Many thanks

Turkcell charges bugger all compared to 81ppm

Just buy a sim at any outlet, plug it in and away you go, whoever you buy form will set it up in English for you, but you will still get advertising texts (loads of late) in Turkish.

You will get a txt after every call/text to tell you your balance.
