Mobile phones
If you wish to use your mobile phone during your stay in Turkey, you should be aware that you must register your telephone upon arrival with customs. Please access the Turkish Embassy website for full details by clicking on the attached link.


Mobile Phone Tips

Mobile telephones are among the top five most popular travelling items taken overseas, and are a convenient way of staying in touch with your family and friends back home.
The network service that allows you to use your UK mobile telephone abroad to make and receive calls and messages is called international roaming. See the following tips to be well prepared. Some of this information may also be useful for buying a mobile, by showing you how to get the best deal on price or coverage for international roaming.
Also see the http://www.ofcom.org.uk/ (the Office of Communications) to find out how to get the best value when using your mobile phone abroad.
Before you go remember to:

Contact your UK mobile network provider to ensure your mobile phone is enabled for international roaming. Do this well in advance of your departure date, as it can take up to 14 days, and you cannot do it from overseas. Check that your existing handset will work in the country you are travelling to; this may not be the case, particularly outside Europe.
Check with your UK network provider how much it costs for international roaming services. Charges can be a lot higher than, and very different to, those for calls in the UK. For example, while roaming you will pay to receive calls and listen to voicemail. Sending text messages may be much cheaper, but you can be charged twice per message (once by your operator and once by the overseas operator) to convey messages to and from home. Rates can vary according to your network and the country you are visiting. Information on charges may be available from your network's web site, customer services or literature.
Confirm the current charges just before you leave as some charges can change at short notice (although other charges are more stable).
If you intend to use your mobile frequently while abroad, consider the following options:

Some mobile services offer international traveller services giving cheaper calls abroad in return for a monthly fee. Check with your network provider what the costs are and how long you would be committed to paying for the service.
It is usually cheaper to use an alternative SIM card in your phone. A SIM card is a small card that lets the phone work on a particular mobile network. It can easily be swapped around in your phone. SIM cards for foreign networks can be bought abroad (eg at international airports and holiday destinations) or (for some European countries) from some UK retailers. Find out if the alternative SIM cards will expire after a fixed time. Also ask your network provider whether it has locked your phone against use with a different SIM card, and what, if anything, it will charge to unlock the phone.
You should be able to rent a mobile telephone handset for the duration of your stay from most mobile telephone companies in the country you are visiting.
If you are particularly concerned about coverage or call quality you may be able to select a particular network for international roaming. Ask your network provider whether it offers a choice of networks and how you can change between them.
If you are using your own network provider's pre-paid mobile international roaming service, make sure you know how to use your credit card to top up your calling credit before you leave, or take extra vouchers, as they may be hard to obtain abroad. Ask your network provider what you have to dial to use international roaming. This may not be as simple as just using the 0044 international prefix for the UK.
Pre-programme into your mobile the telephone number of the nearest British Embassy, High Commission, or Consulate in the country you are visiting. Do the same with the telephone number of your hotel and tour representative. If you are using an alternative SIM card whilst abroad you may have to programme the information in after you have inserted the alternative SIM card (as some phones record the phone numbers in the SIM card rather than the phone).
Familiarise yourself with your mobile's voicemail retrieval system. Voicemail can be difficult to access while abroad, and you should ask your mobile network provider if this is not clear.
Take an electrical adopter for the charger plug, to keep your mobile telephone fully charged while you are abroad.
Make a note of your mobile's serial number (also known as the IMEI number), your mobile telephone number and the telephone number of your operator's customer services (including UK dialling code). Keep them with you in a safe place, separate from your mobile. If your phone is stolen you will be able to contact the network operator in the UK and request that they block your phone and/or SIM card. You may need to provide additional information in order to get the phone blocked, such as a password. Contact your operator for details of how they deal with stolen phones before you leave to ensure that you take sufficient information abroad to enable you to block the phone if it is stolen.
While you are there:

Do not rely on your mobile telephone if you have not set up international roaming before you go.
You should be able to rent a mobile telephone handset for the duration of your stay from most mobile telephone companies in the country you are visiting.
If you cannot get a good signal remember that you may be able to change your phone to work with a different network
