Travel Document Systems Adds International Cell Phone Service
Along with providing a one-stop service for travel documents, Travel Document Systems now offers international cell phone rental for travelers. The phones offered by TDS will provide service in over 185 different countries with affordable calling rat
Online, December 2, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Many smart travelers have already turned to Travel Document Systems to help provide them with all the necessary passport and visa applications for their trips abroad. In addition to providing travel insurance, TDS is proud to add international cell phone rental for overseas travel.
"Our mission is simple; to provide the convenience and security of cell phone and data service to anyone traveling internationally at a price they can afford." As further explained on their website, domestic cell phone carriers such as Verizon, AT&T, Sprint and T-Mobile do offer some international calling and data service plans, but they are often a challenge to set up and end up being very expensive. Then there is the issue of whether or not a phone will actually work overseas. TDS makes international cell phone rental affordable and reliable.
With the National Geographic Travel Phone offered on the TDS site, travelers will receive an unlocked GSM cell phone that can either be purchased for a low cost or rented for the duration of a trip. This particular cell phone plan allows for calling in over 200 countries and free incoming calls in up to 70 select countries. TDS also allows for travelers to purchase even more affordable cell phone rental packages for a "country specific" trip where they might only be travelling to a single destination.
Because this is a prepaid service, there are no contracts to sign or monthly fees. A cell phone that operates with a SIM can be adapted for these special services. Travelers can also opt to rent a phone, which is a convenient way to keep all business related calls separate and easy to reimburse. Many of the international cell phone packages begin at as little as $99 with a broad range of options and features to select from. Included in these packages are also data services which allow travelers to utilize devices such as iPhones, iPads and laptops to gain access to the web.
If a traveler is headed to a more remote location, then TDS can also offer up satellite phone rentals that can literally work in any spot on the planet. Satellite phone rentals are a premium service, and as such, will come with a steeper price, but the user is often only charged per each call.
