Default Which sim in Sudan? - 14-01-2008, 18:14

My friend goes to Sudan the next February. I suggest her to buy an international sim (Travelsim is the best 'cause the incoming calls are free while Um+ has set-up fee and cost 0,19 eurocent/minute). But there's a local sim that she can use without spending a lot?
Thanks

Thanks, its' a good solution, but there's a trouble: she will stay on the ship because she goes to Sudan to diving. Do you think she can buy a mtn on the ship?i hope so

If she never goes down the ship I fear it will be hard to find a shop!

So, she only can buy a travelsim, there aren't other solutions.

Did you check all the other international cards. Yackie lists sudan too. Obviously if she will be calling mostly to Sudan and receiving calls from Sudan, a local Sudanese sim will be the best option. If that's not doable, then compare all the international sims and see which one is more appropriate.

In that case, a local sim is NOT really neccesary. Compare the international sims, and then choose the best option.
