OK this not gor me it for a slut at work… we need to find a cell phone that can be used for 6 weeks while in London… I was told one can rent a phone … Or is there a way that you can get a “Pay-As-You-Go” type phone while over there?? No she is not going to get a “world” phone from her cell company I was told most “sim” phone will work but you need to get a sim once there … I was also told you can just get a T-Mobile or Virgin Mobile any info K thanks ---

She needs to get a quad-band unlocked GSM phone. Can be any AT&T or T-mobile phone that says QUAD BAND in the specs and is unlocked. Look on e-bay. After that, she just buys a prepaid sim from a british carrier and pops it in there. ---

even if it’s a locked gsm phone you can call your company and they’ll offer you an upgrade for the month and cover you there. My GF was just in paris for work and her work blackberry functioned like she was here.
