My Phone Number In Taipei

written by John Chow on June 4th, 2006

If anyone needs to contact me while in Taipei, my local cell number is 0958-216-176. If you are calling from international, or from Skype out, the number is 011-886-958-216-176. Setting up the local number cost $600NT. That’s about $20.00US, and gives me 45 minutes of airtime plus 100 free text message. For some reason, text messaging is very big in Asia. I doubt I will use this feature. Stephen has so far being unable to find anyone to unlock his cell phone.

Getting use to the US/NT exchange takes some adjustment and it’s really quite a lot fun. For example, I spent $3,300 on lunch today. And you should see my bank balance when it’s expressed in NT dollars! :)

Not so fast pink phone plan man!

You paid $20 “US” for 45 minutes.

I pay…ALL in CDN…

$0.50 Local Calls (in TW)
$1.00 incoming and back to canada
$1.75 International LD calls

Hmm… Based on a 1.15 US exchange, you pay $0.5111 cents per minute CDN… Eeenteresting… LOL!
