Kind of ridiculous. So I signed up for their "World Traveler" for $6 which means I'll pay $.99/minute to make calls from my iPhone, but it is better than nothing, and like I said I don't imagine I'll be making calls for anything other than emergencies.

I had also borrowed another friend's old Samsung Alias but she couldn't find a charger and they appear to be impossible to acquire anymore, so that won't work either.

After all that i'm quite frustrated by the whole situation!
That sucks. You're better off purchasing a calling card and using it with the Iphone bc the rates are much cheaper.

The only other solution is to jailbrake. You'll be able to unlock the phone.
