I don't like calling cards . if you have a smart phone use a app to call anywhere. its easy and cheap, I use two different ones. BOSS REVOLUTION AND REBTEL . I call west Africa with no big issues . if the line is bad hang up and try again

Yes. The merchant provides dialing instructions for South Africa upon purchase. N.B. Dialing instructions with this merchant are a bit different from other prepaid cards.

Not sure if I completely understand you question but generally yes if the SIM card fits, you can use it. The E6 is an international phone and is capable of operating on any GSM phone system. Depending on where the phone was purchased does determine the operating languages so if you purchased the phone in the USA it will only support common languages spoken in North and South America. Since you are asking your question in English, you should be able to use your phone anywhere in the world that uses the GSM standard. From my understanding you want to travel to South Africa and buy a SIM card in the cournty so you don't have to pay international rates on every local call you make. The E6 is a good phone for that purpose. That's why I bought mine.

I think it's only outgoing from the USA but if you call them they can tell you. They seem to be a small but helpful company!

No depending on where in SA, the current is 220 or 230 ; this appliance operates on 110 (US current). You would need an converter to use it in SA.

Hello- It should definitely work in South Africa. We used it in Namibia and had a friend who had used it in Botswana. If Zimbabwe uses the same adapter, you should be all set.

Hey there. To answer your question, yes it will work in South Africa. I went ahead and looked it up for you, though network quality might lower your speed of information transmission,but we all deal with that ha! But yes, this is an great phone very crisp screen, good lenovo software that really moves! I'm very happy with my phone, in fact my brother bought a HTC desire, and he's thinking of tradeing it out for this one. Anyway I hope that helps, take care! Marc P. (USA)

Yes and you do it when you are there / activation which gives you the number with the correspinding area codr but not important since outbound calls are included to all US destinationd

America Region. As you can see in our listing where we advise of this, you would simply insert a U.S SIM card and have an accumulative time of 5 to 10 minutes of talk time. This means you can make one call and have it last 5 to 10 minutes, or make several calls and their talk time should add up to 5 to 10 minutes.You can borrow a SIM card from a friend or family member to do this and give it right back to them when you're done.Doing this disables the restrictions these phones have and you can then use it outside the U.S with no issues.

You need to find out from the phone network over there if it will. I only know about the Caribbean

I'm sorry, I wouldn't know about the US. I use mine in the Bahamas and the system over there is completely different.I just took it to the phone company, got a sim card and pay online for data $10 at a time as I go over there.

I have family in Canada. When I visit there, can I use the Jitterbug service to call to the U.S.? The GreatCalls coverage map doesn't show service outside the U.S.
