cell phone

How do I go about using a cell phone in Vietnam?

Here a some suggested guidelines for the mobifone

Unlock your cell phone before your departure

Download Viber app on your phone and ask your significant others to do the same. You can communicate via Viber for free wherever there is WIFI, this will save you a lot of money!

If both you and your family are on facebook, you can make free call via messenger also.

When you arrive in Vietnam, we usually ask a sale person to come to the hotel and sell you the tourist sims cards and a cheap Vietnam phone (if you want one)

The sims card will give you a Vietnam mobile phone number, unlimited data for 30 days, 30 min of international call for 250,000 VND

Remove your US sims card and insert your Vietnam sims card in your phone

Whenever you use your VN mobile phone number to talk, the money or minutes on your account will go down, when it reaches the minimum level, you won’t be able to make any calls at all.

You can check to see how much money you have left in your account, by dialing *101#

A message will appear on your screen to let you know how much money you have left and the date your sims card will expire
