So the last time I was in China, my China Mobile SIM card stopped working everytime I went to a new town/province.

Did I get the wrong SIM card? Is there a specific type of SIM card that works across China?

Hi S-Punkt, hohoho has China Mobile but does not work at every other province. Maybe the problem is in his settings?

Thanks for the tip on the international calling option. A must-have option for me at least.
