Hi,

I know there are 3 options for Mobile Carriers in Malta (Vodafone, Melita and Go). As I want to have a new phone in order to lower my costs (currently still using my Swiss mobile) for business use, I was wondering if anyone of you could tell me which tariff might be best for a person travelling a lot (mainly EU + Switzerland) and also calling mainly EU.

Data tariff for usage abroad might also be a criteria...

I am open to suggestions.

Thanks,

Michael.

Why don't you ask them? that way you will get the correct information and be able to explain your exact requirements.

Well I already looked on the internet, so I have some or most of the information already.

I just thought maybe there is someone else who already has experience so I dont have to invent the wheel again.

There are just slight differences, although currently I would say Melita is the best in regards to costs of calls.

There is Melita plan that you pay 75 per month or 50 if you bring your own mobile (1st 500 customers only) and includes the following:

- UNLIMITED calls to ALL local mobile numbers
- UNLIMITED calls to ALL local fixed numbers
- UNLIMITED local SMS
- 500 mins to EU zone 1 numbers
- 3GB Data

I am mentioning Melita as it is the one I use and I am quite happy with them.

Cheerio,
Antonio

Thanks Antonio,

do you travel a lot to Portugal? I was wondering if you notice the prices abroad a lot, especially Data Roaming.

Michael.
