I do not have a local landline.
Most of my friends don聮t have either. Everyone just use mobile phones.
If you need to call other countries a lot, the best solution is a hardware VoIP phone some SIP subscription. Buy a hardware like this Connect the base station to you home router with an Ethernet cable. Subscribe to any VoIP operator[s] you like (the gigaset supports several parallel accounts), e.g. when I聮ve been calling US a lot I聮ve been using And if you need a phone # for incoming calls, rent one in any country you like, e.g.
For the mobile, I recommend getting a prepaid SIM card from = T-Mobile.
Make sure you聮re buying an ordinary prepaid card, not that special Tourist offer (the tourists card have severe limitations you don聮t want).
You聮ll be asked for an ID, show them any document with your photo like a passport or driving license.
If you need mobile internet, it聮ll cost you 聙4-聙5 per 1GB data for 15 days, you can activate those packages through SMS (聯mo int15聰 to number 1477, 聙5) or USSD (聙4, *111# then navigate through menu, Moja opcia / Internet opcije / 15 dana).
