| Will do, but expensive to use - don't forget N Cyprus is on the Turkey tariff and not the EU Cyprus one. Depending on how long you are staying, it would be better to unlock your phone and buy a local (Telsim or Turkcell sim, readily available in many shops ans big supermarkets like Lemar)) or email if staying at a hotel. |

| It will work if you have roaming set up. I was out in June and only used my Orange phone a few times and got a £153 bill when I got back though so I wouldn't bother if you can manage without it.................. |

| Works ok with text think they are about 40p but calls very expensive, if you need to phone use the phone at the Big Orange selling orange juice just down the main street and turn right at the cross roads he has three phones there really cheap to make a call. |

The Wi-Fi coverage at Pia Bella is free to use, so if you bring a laptop with Skype on it....
It'll cost you NOWT! |
