Cool A lot...I paid $3000 for a second hand nokia I bought due to the simple fact the buttons were far apart as I was entering the wrong code when I put in the pre-paid card numbers due to having fingers much bigger than the buttons on a Panasonic I already had. Prices for new ones generally start around $3000.

Hi guys,

I'm resurrecting this old topic because I was unable to find a more recent one when I did a search.

Anyway, I'll be coming over to Taipei in December for 3 months and was wondering what the situation is like for getting a prepaid mobile phone.

How easy is it to do so (I'll have a student visa), how much does it cost to buy the phone and each time you charge it, and which shop do you recommend I visit?

Thanks very much indeed for any help you could give me!

No problem, cell phones galore and shops which sell phones, plans cards etc. Literally they are shops selling them on every down town block.
even 7/11 sell cards.
Cheapest is with a company paln, but if here for 3 months only a prepaid card is the way to go. last one i brought was about 10 dollars.
There are so many selling that info given now would probably be out of date by xmas
