Does anyone have any information???? (also if it is a kosher phone or not) and where to buy. Also, anyone know where to but Orange phone company?? THANXXXXXXXXX
If you’re looking for something “permanent,” try Golan Telecom. 99 shekels/month includes unlimited calling in Israel and international. Plus unlimited text messages.
If you’re looking for Orange, they are everywhere.
I went to Orange on Malchei Yisrael (Geula) and they had a list of Kosher phone options. I think I paid 200 shekels for the phone (That was a piece of junk, so now I bought a better used one.), and I pay about $12 per month. I don’t remember how many minutes I got- something like 500 to kosher phones, 500 to landlines, and a small amount per minute to non-kosher cells.
I think any american rental phone company is a complete waste of money! They will charge you a fortune and give you little minute and are not very flexible in many ways. I think you are better off getting an Israeli plan. They are much cheaper and are not looking to rip money off people as much. I have heard of this 99 shekel plan a number of times and hear its great! If you don’t need so many minutes out of israel, there are tunz of cheaper plans with tuns of minutes!
