My wife & I will be visiting the U.K. in September for two weeks . Our T- mobile phones are as follows:
Hugh R. Rhys 818-693-4416 Elizabeth P. Rhys 818-693-4415
We wish to be able to:
1. Call each other 2. Call friends in the U.K 3. Call friends in the U.S. 4. Access our house phone (hard line) voice mail in the U.S.
All calls are likely to be brief.
We understand there may be more than one option for achieving the above.
What are these options and how and where do we exercise them?
Thank you for your kind assistance.
Hugh Rhys

When someone travels to a foreign land they will have to face roaming charges if they stick on to the original carrier they are with...to avoid the roaming charges one can either rent a mobile in the foreign country or use a local sim.
When you rent a mobile be careful to read the regulations and lease period. Renting a cell phone is advised for those who are traveling overseas for only one or two weeks. To rent a phone in U.K you can approach any rental companies like Cellomobile.com or any thing that is comfortable for your budget.
Another option is to use a local sim with your mobile. For that your mobile should be unlocked one so as to accept the sim card that you insert. If it is locked with a particular network then it won't be able to recognize or accept other networks. To unlock your phone you can approach the respective network provider or any third party unlocking websites like Simpleunlocking.com and follow the free unlocking instructions from Mobileunlockguide.com and remove the restriction. Once the mobile is unlocked you can use the phone with the local sim.
Choose an option depending on the number of days that you stay and the one that is economical for you.
