injunjoe Posted October 13, 2004 #1 Share Posted October 13, 2004 Hello all....I did a search on this and came up with a link but it no longer works. I am looking for a place that I can purchase a prepaid Meican phone company card online. I would like to buy one to call home at our stops in Cozumel and Costa Maya. Any suggestions? Also, how many minutes do you get for your dollar? Thanks for the help Injun Joe 12/4/04 Sensation just weeks away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CozSally Posted October 14, 2004 #2 Share Posted October 14, 2004 You can buy phone cards at any pharmacy in Cozumel for 30, 50, or 100 pesos, which is about $2.75, $4.50 or $9. I believe they charge 12 pesos per minute, so the 100 peso card ($9) will last 8.5 minutes, roughly working out to be a dollar per minute. I don't know where they might be available online.

cruisinqt Posted October 14, 2004 #3 Share Posted October 14, 2004 You can purchase Mextel calling cards at: [url="http://www.telmexusa.com/pcclooo.asp"]www.telmexusa.com/pcclooo.asp[/url]. Don't use the local pay phones that say "Call the U.S. here." You will pay dearly, they are not cheap. :( If you can't find one cheap on the website I mentioned above, then just purchase a mextel prepaid phone card at one of the local stores, as CozSally said, they are everywhere.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
injunjoe Posted October 14, 2004 Author #4 Share Posted October 14, 2004 Thanks for the suggestions QT & Sally.....by he way QT, the link you posted is not a good link anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marietx4 Posted October 14, 2004 #5 Share Posted October 14, 2004 Try [url="http://www.telmexusa.com/pcc1200.asp"]www.telmexusa.com/pcc1200.asp[/url] This one should work. I spoke to a represenative from Telmex and she said to look for the payphones that have their symbol on them and we shouldn't have any problems (looks like a capital T sitting inside the top of a capital M, does that make sense? :) Their prices are $5, $10 and $20 USD. This will get you 10, 20 or 40 minutes. Hopes this helps. Marie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marietx4 Posted October 14, 2004 #6 Share Posted October 14, 2004 Just tried my own link and that did not work either. Try simply [url="http://www.telmex.com"]www.telmex.com[/url] Marie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
injunjoe Posted October 14, 2004 Author #7 Share Posted October 14, 2004 Thanks....I just purchased a $20 card that will be good for 40 minutes. With stops in Coz and Costa Maya that should be enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WDWfan13 Posted October 17, 2004 #8 Share Posted October 17, 2004 injunjoe, Did you purchase the virtual cards? That is the only option that I can find on the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
injunjoe Posted October 18, 2004 Author #9 Share Posted October 18, 2004 Yes....it was a virtual card that I purchased. I would rather have an actual card but I was able to print out all of the necessary info. Hopefully I won't have any problems using it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WDWfan13 Posted October 18, 2004 #10 Share Posted October 18, 2004 injunjoe, Thanks for your reply, I was afraid that I was doing something wrong when I couldn't find a regular card. Can you please post after you use the virtual card and let us know if you had any problems? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
