| Just curious, but if I were to have a cell phone in NYC, say with Verizon or T-mobile and someone from europe, or any international country were to call me, do I get charged extra aside from the basic usage of minutes from my calling plan ? The last thing I would wanna see is $4.99 per minute for each call to my phone from outside the USA. |

i got verizon,,and im speaking to my friends and family in England every day frequently,,,talk to verizon and they will work out a deal for you...i pay about $5 extra a month and calls to and from the UK are like about 9 cents a minute... |

| Damn, I wish the US phones had free incoming like it does in Europe. Then it wouldnt be so bad. |

Not bad, maybe I should go with T-Mobile. |

| of all the plans I've seen, incoming international calls count as regular airtime for verizon, t mobile and sprint. and if you want to make phone calls, it's a lot cheaper to buy cards online. there are several websites I use to buy calling cards. i can give you the sites if you're interested in making international calls too. :D |

Thanx, Im not worried so much about calling out to those places, but just receiving them. I know if u call its clearly much more expensive. I just dont wanna be charged more than the usual usage of minutes aka $500 phone bill. |
