I wanted to send an old celll phone that I don't use anymore to my family in Germany because somebody there needs it. I am wondering if it will work there if they use their own sim card since its a US phone. Thanks

They (or you) would have to get the device unlocked so any SIM could be used in it. Once that's done, it should work fine for calls and texts.

The phone would have to be unlocked from its US carrier AND it would have to be capable of using GSM 900/1800 MHz. As 850/1900 MHz is used in the US, unless your phone is a quadband phone, it won't work in Germany.
