As our site states, cell phones can only be called in Canada/USA, China, Hong Kong, Singapore and Thailand.
The reason for this is that the termination fees charged by network carriers to call cell phones in other countries are so high that we could not afford to include it in the 13.95 price. Once we find carriers that can call cell phones in other countries for much lower rates, then we will gradually add them to the list.
