Mobile phone's operators in Finland

Post by noz » Tue Jul 29, 2008 1:22 pm

Hi!
I'm moving to Finland in the beggining of August.
To be in touch with the people I'm going to meet and to phone home I'm going to buy a finnish prepaid SIM card for my cell phone.
Do you know which operator better suits foreign people the best, since I'm going to make some international calls? (and domestic calls to)
Which one do you use?

Thanks

I have never used prepaid, but operators that offer them are:
http://www.sonera.fi/en/Easy+Prepaid/
http://www.dnaoy.fi/en/privatecustomers ... epaid.aspx
http://www.kolumbus.com/liittymat_prepaid.html (in finnish only)
http://www.go.fi/index.php?setlang=2

might be others also, but those you can get from R-kioski.

Visa is for visiting, Residence Permit for residing.

There are several threads about these things already, so you should try a search of the forum for more info.

But if possible, make international calls through your computer and not through a regular phone! I use a program called skype (http://www.skype.com), other people use other programs (eg. msn etc). Several of them are mentioned in other threads. If you make, eg. through skype, a call to someone else with skype, it is free no matter what country you are calling to. If you call a normal phone from your computer through skype, it costs you only local charges.

Good luck,
