First contact the provider and get international service connected. With AT&T World Traveler, it is $5.99 per phone per month PLUS .99/minute calling, .50/text, and $1.30 to send a picture. They advise keeping up with calls so that you know when all the calls you made come through on your bill. Sometimes call billing is delayed.
If you cancel your international plan before all calls come through then you are charged more. They also recommend turning your cell on and off several times before leaving the states to save settings, and then turning it on and off several times when we arrive in Paris to connect to their towers.
When calling from country to country, you need to put a plus sign (+) in front of the country code and then the number. To get a plus sign, hold down the zero til the plus sign appears.
How to:
1. Calling home from your cell—dial +1 and (10 digit number). 1 is the country code for the U.S.
2. Home calling your cell—+(country code) and the number (France is 33 and England is 44)
3. Calling locally (say a hotel in Paris)—just dial the number
4. Calling each other mobile to mobile—just dial the number
If you have any other service, you might call to clarify.
