Question Using a Canadian mobile phone in Ibiza

Hey all,
I have a GSM phone from Canada that I am not using at the moment and I want to be able to use it in Ibiza. I was wondering if there is a way to go about it and if so, what needs to be done? Do I have to unlock the phone, can I just buy a number in Ibiza for a couple weeks, how much does it cost, do I get a SIM card from the same people in Ibiza, etc etc etc?? By the way, I am wanting to use a Motorola V60i (I know, it's OLD OLD OLD, but it's the only GSM phone I have).

Thanks everyone,
Terry

Your cellphone might be simlocked so you need to get that taken care of.


Now in regards to service over there you'll want to buy a prepaid SIM Card.

Then you can recharge by buying cards like this:

I also found this but I can't vouch for what it means as I don't speak spanish:

OK, another question.

Anyone know how to unlock a phone easily? I went to a dealer and they said it would be $300 for an unlocking code!! Bullshit!

If you have been under contract with that phone for a long time ( 6 months to a year are the minimum I think ) the cellphone carrier is contractually obligated to unlock it for you for free if you ask!

or do this... call you phone company and tell them you need to use the phone on the trip! they might just give them you sim code. That's the way i did it. except when i called them i pretened to be a dealer since i didn't have a T-mobile account to unlock my A630 phone for cingular. Suckas fell for it saved me $$$
