Phone company in Hong Kong?

Hi,


I am going to be in Hong Kong for 1+ months. 


I am looking to purchase phone service + wifi package for this timeframe. Does anyone have any phone company / service to recommend?


Thanks.

It was PCCW and Orange when I lived there 8 years ago.  There should be an HK version of Glocals where you'll find the answer.  I used to use http://hongkong.asiaxpat.com/.  But again, it's been a few years.

Hi there,


if you need to get a 1 month service plan, you need a Hong Kong ID which is kind of stupid.


But you can check all the phone companies such as: 3, smartone, 1010 etc. Usually they have phone card for visitor where you can refill the min.  As far as Wi-fi I am not quiet sure but there are a lot of free public Wi-fi that you can get an access such as: Pacific Coffee.  Just get a coffee there and you are connected in no time for free of charge :-).


I hope this helps.
