| Having read through previous posts re mobile phone charges I reckon that my cheapest way to touchbase with elderly parents in the UK whilst in TRNC is to buy a mobile phone with a turkish sim card etc. I'm staying at Park Lane Bungalows next week, can anyone suggest where I might buy a phone in that area and how cheap is cheap?! Many thanks Trulymadly |

| I just bought a Nokia 1280 phone just last week. Its about as cheap as they come and cost 60 TL, plus 20 TL for a turk cell sim card. This is not close to Alsancak, but the place I bought this one was the mobile phone shop right along the eastern roundabout in Girne (the same one with Mani Peni restaurant and Shooters coffee house). |

| If you have a spare mobile phone or even get a cheap one in the UK, then take that and one of the phone shops will sell you a sim card, remember to take photo ID and they set it up for me so messages were in English. I used one of the phone shops in Girne in the high street. My place is in Alsancak but I do not know of a shop that sells sim cards there. Paul |

| Thanks everyone for your thoughts re mobiles in TRNC. Thanks Scootex and Settledhere for offers of phones for sale. I have decided to go down the 'bring 2 pay as you go sim cards with credit on which I already have' route with me! I'm also going to get my 10 year old to show his grandparents how to use SKYPE. |
