We will show you how UNLOCKING CAN HELP YOU TO ELIMINATE ROAMING CHARGES without changing your cell phone.
Do you travel frequently, for either business or pleasure, only to return home to an outrageous cell phone bill time after time. Well don't despair because there is a way you can travel around the world, using your cell phone at will without having to pay for hefty roaming charges from your local service provider.
I have heard countless stories of individuals just like you and I who have gone on a trip abroad and have used their cell phones just a few times and have come home to find their cellular bill in the hundreds, sometimes in even the thousands of dollars of unexpected roaming charges.
Unlocking Your Cell Phone for Travel
Unlocking you phone has many benefits for the frequent and well traveled. Most cell phones are locked to a single service provider, making it next to impossible to change service plans. But with an unlocked GSM cell phone you are enabled to use dual, tri or even quad band networks anywhere around the worked. All you need to do is switch the SIM card in your unlocked cell phone to a local prepaid plan or other local cellular plan. By switching to a local service provider while you travel, you are able to make calls without incurring expensive roaming charges from your carrier back home.
Since you can use almost any GSM SIM card on over 670 GSM networks around the world, you will also be able to buy a service plan from a local service providers in the country you are visiting. By purchasing a local service plan you can take advantage of their cheaper rates while avoiding the normally expected roaming fees you would pay on calls and text messages.
Benefits of Unlocking Your Cell Phone for Travel
Above and beyond the most obvious benefits of eliminating roaming charges, there are other benefits for unlocking your cell phone while traveling. Benefits such as:
Being able to use your own cell phone and all of its features while traveling. You do not need to buy a new cell phone and re-enter all your contacts and information into a new cell phone because with an unlocked cell phone you only need to change the SIM card. Your contact information remains intact on your cell phone.
You also save and the hassle of having to purchase a second local mobile handset and having to juggle multiple cellular phones. This can be a big annoyance and is a complete waste of your hard earned money.
And if you are a frequent travel, may it be for business or pleasure, an unlocked cell phone can be invaluable for keeping in touch with family, friends and work colleagues. And switching a SIM card is much easier then switching mobile phones.
