Hi
I'm due to travel to USA from 30 Apr - 6 May and wanted to be able to call home for 30 min each evening. Ive been directed to Tu Go but this seems more than what I need. Im on a monthly tarriff (basic) and don't want to end up with an expensive bill when I get home. Im not techi so want a low cost call home option from USA to UK for a week. Any suggestions/recommendations?
Thanks
Liz

You could use a Three sim card if your phone is unlocked but actually TuGo is a good option and will use your UK allowances if you connect by wifi. Switch off mobile data and you won't incur any costs.
Quite apart from that you have so many ways to call and message these days, again by wifi and all free.
Skype, Messanger, Viber, Whatsapp, Line....many choices as long as the person you are cfalling has the matching app.
