Bev, I have heard that it costs about £130 to have a land line installed, however, I have also heard that you need a resident permit as well ?

I am sure others will tell me if my assumtion is correct.

  I think I am right in saying, but yes you do need to have a Residents Visa, before you can have a phone line.

Thanks for the info, hope the cost of sending e-mails via mobile gets cheaper then, as i spend hours a day on line (sad I know) Eventually hope to spend 2 to 4 months a year over there.

I spent about half an hour checking my emails at a little internet cafe in Fethiye and they charged me a whopping 20p

I recommend the internet cafes too. Plenty around in Fethiye. The one I used had Messenger and it was very quick. A quick text to the person you want to talk to to agree your times and away you go. Just remember to change the keyboard layout to En (English) or things go a bit strange.

We went to the new PTT office when we were out there in January and filled out the forms for a phone line and they asked if we wanted internet access - the only thing is that they had ran out of numbers!!! Still it is Turkey.  Nobody said that you had to be a resident.  We will now have to wait and see if we get one!

Small hint
If you have a Turkish friend and if he accept , you can have a telephone line for your houses on his/her name but your Turkish friend will be responsible on paying the bills if you dont pay them:D
