Switzerland Roaming

Recommended Posts

I am planning a vacation with my family in Swiss next month. I find the international roaming rates to be very very high. I am having a Reliance CDMA and Airtel connection ( Both are post paid)

Please inform what the options are.

For calling to India can I buy a sim there and use it? will it be cheaper?

I plan to be in USA next month onwards.. the best I found is VOIP (from PC)

Nothing can be as cheap as that..

Does an app exist for Treo to make voip calls?

To my experience by a prepaid card in the country and use. You need internet connection for Skype and VOIP , definetly the charges for net connection is higher.

Thanks guys.

I find Matrix also costly.

Best would be to buy a pre-paid in that country, I feel

Well Reliance Passport is really a very good option..

I have been suggesting a combination of Passport & World Calling Calling card for all my friends on this Forum.

Take a temporary UK SIM when you go to Swiss.. (its possible to use a UK sim there)

Mention this number in your vacation mail.. Incoming per min. for you - Free (Daily rental apply though)

If possible re-charge a World Calling card with plan 2250 in a Rel mobile/LL back in India. (Good for US/Canada, Not really feasible to call UK Mobiles)

You may use a similar combination like the above..
