Forums > Living in Kunming > iPhone usage in KunMing

Greginchina, got a question for you.

I got an iPhone from the US, unlocked and jailbroken couple of weeks ago and have been using it with my China Unicom SIM card. I have Wi-Fi at home and assumed that I was checking my email through my Wi-Fi but found out yesterday that I was charged over 140RMB for data usage!! Is there a way to set the iPhone to not use the carrier and only to only use Wi-Fi to download emails?

Thanks

Thanks

ShiDa uses a combination of HanYu JiaoCheng and FaZhan HanYu series. You are on their campus, can eat at the cafeteria, join their activities, etc... so there were more exposure to Chinese students. They are more expensive, about 6400RMB per semester.

DongFeng primarily uses the Fazhan Hanyu series. Tuition is a lot cheaper, 4800RMB for 10 hours. You will mostly be with other foreigners learning Chinese. The only Chinese will be their teachers and staff.

Both will give visa. No complaint about teachers at both schools. I did HSK prep one-on-one at ShiDa. DongFeng also has HSK prep course. Class size at both places are 8-12 generally.

I looked at YunDa. It's not on campus but right next to it in a hotel kind of thing. Tuition is not that cheap either. They also give visa.

Best thing is to get a tourist visa, come first and visit the schools. They will change the visa for you.

Forums > Living in Kunming > Owning Property in China-under what name?

If the property is in Kunming, you need to go to the Kunming notary office and apply to use a Chinese name. You will have to bring your passport, your registration at the police station, some pictures, a couple of letters (in Chinese) stating that this is the name you will use in legal matters in China and that you will bear all lawful consequences. If you have everything, it will take about 1 day to complete.
