Motorola v300 in Europe?

Hi all,

I need to depart today to Europe and I was wondering if I could use my Moto
v300 over there without getting killed by T-mobile? can I buy a local SIM
card? Does my phone need to be unlocked? what exactly would I have to do and
who should I talk to? Thank you in advance and please excuse my ignorance.

George

I have got the same phone and am leaving for Hong Kong in 1 week's
time. What I have done is have my T-Mobile Motorola V300 phone
unlocked. Get a local SIM card from Simpro that says it allows call
from Hong Kong to USA/Canada for CDN$25 150mins and activated before
leaving for HK. Or alternative buy one of those local SIM cards and
use it for local calls and long distance calls.

Remember, the phone must be unlocked to be able to use SIM cards other
than your network provider.

Yes - you definately need your phone to be un-locked , then you can use all
sim cards - i“m using local sim cards in my V500 when i“m in Thailand and
Singapore
then i just go down to the local mobile pusher and by a simcard with prepaid
airtime and when needed , i just re-fill the card!
Works fine....
