    Yes, we have a phone line.

    You are only able to make local free calls, as Jimbo said, best way is to get a mobile.

    Your friends can call you as much as they'd like, though.  You can also buy phone cards to make long distance calls from your apartment.

    Yeah i think phone cards are the best way to keep in touch with your family & friends back home, the cards are very cheap and you can be on the phone for a long time with one $ 10 o $ 20 dlls card
    See ya ;)

    Heeeeey!!!
    Dont worry at all..... when you arrive florida you will be just fine!!!!! there are a lot of people that like you have never been to florida, and some of the things they will tell you at the disney clasess and some other will be told by the people from your same country at your work location.
    But as i said before... dont worry... you will be fine and the phone cards are sold by castmembers in the same place.

    as we are living right next to the shopping mall, there is a newsagents where you can buy phone cards. For $10 to the Uk you get around 200 minutes. Should be around the same for Hong Kong. The ones for Walmart are great, as you can just top it up when you go shopping. Dont call mobiles from it though, cause it will eat all your money up in seconds!!!

    Hey Sarah,

  19. screamf1

    screamf1 New Member

    yep, you can get them in all denominations, from $10 US dollars to $50, and then top it up with however much you want - but be careful that you dont over use them!!!!!!!
