  That depends on the international long distance rates charged by their Long Distance Company or international calling card.

I personally have made sure that the solution for China that Cellular Abroad offers is the best possible cellular solution for the business professional or the tourist traveling to China. If you do not find this to be the case, I want to know about it! Sebastian Harrison, President, Cellular Abroad
