Telecoms + internet

[Lujar]

Hi All,
Is it possible to buy a Turkcell sim in the uk? I have tried ebay but there are none listed, is this perhaps due to the issue of registering your phone ?
Can I still take an old phone with me to Tukey or will I need a purchase receipt?
Also interested in getting ADSL installed in our property near Yalikavak, does anyone know if this is possible and the costs invloved.
Thanks in advance,.

In the light of what is happening here at the moment, you can not assume that a 'foreign' phone will work here with a local sim card. You are safest to work on the assumption that you will buy a phone here and get a sim card at the same time. A lot of shops sell second-hand phones if you don't want to pay for a new one.

If ADSL is available in your area, and if there is a line available, the costs are set out on a post yesterday in the 'Fethiye' section relating to ADSL speeds. A post towards the end of that thread gives a link to a Turk Telecom site which gives connection charge and monthly rental charges.
