I just called Rogers and for $50 you get 15min and 100 txt messages. Anyone have a better idea, my phone is unlocked so I can put any sim card into it. I tried finding a store with sims last time at TTR to no avail? Also does anyone know where there is free wifi? I thought maybe the starbucks at the mall down the road from TTR? P.S. 6 days to go!
Starbucks does offer free wifi - access code is on the receipt. It did not work with Friefox but worked fine with IE. You will need to go to a cell phone store and buy a sim card and plan. TelCel stores are everywhere. Might as well just spend the $8-$15 at the resort when you need internet access or buy the week long plan for around $75. Its not worth leaving the resort in search of free access.
I like to call or txt our daughter everyday or second day! We tried cell phone stores last year with no results. I thought Rogers was pretty steep for 15min of talk time for $50.
We were there in August and wifi at the resort was AWFUL!!!! Difficult to get on, slow and very sporadic.
Well went with the Rogers $75 plan at least we can txt home and make the odd call. I still like to hop the bus and go to starbucks though, wifi and a decent coffee.
There is free wifi close by the pirate boat. Don't know how the service is but if you buy a beer you can use the wifi for free.
if you catch the bus and go to the mall, you can pick up a sim card w/data on it, for something like 40 bucks. much cheaper than the hotel's $10 a day.
