Looking for a repair person who can fix the door on my LG fridge.  After searching this board, Gualberto has been highly recommended, however, he was unable to fix the fridge as he says he can’t get parts for LG.  We also had Vincente from the repair shop on Colon.  He could not help.  We purchased the fridge at Costco 3 years ago.  Hoping to find someone locally before bringing a repair person in from GDL.

No mine is 3-4 pages with many landmarks so you can feel comfortable with your location. Mine is fashioned after the ones produced by Sanborns 40 years ago when there were NO road signs or numbers. Have a good trip.

For future, I’d appreciate a copy of your document.  Could you please PM to me?  TIA

Send me by PM your email address and I will send you my turn by turn log that will eliminate all your doubts. This log is up to date as of 3/19/19 and it the product of more than 65 round trips. 

Sadly, too late.  Are you the person who created the document that chapalence posted?  If so, it would be helpful to have highway numbers included.

Thanks to all for the info.  We followed the route provided in the link posted by chapalence and we’re mostly successful, with just one slightly off track.  It oils be very helpful if that document included the highway numbers.  Does anyone know who created it so I can. Make that suggestion directly?

Why not use a GPS....  Road signage in Mexico is not the best...

gee, thanks.  Have you driven this route yourself??  GPS is not reliable.  

Yes, I’ve searched but after 15 minutes of reading unrelated posts, I’m resorting to asking.  We’re travelling from Laredo tomorrow.  Plan on stopping overnight in either Saltillo or Monterrey.  Would appreciate info on staying on course.  Friends recently travelled and got off track adding 2 hours to their travels.  Thanks in advance.

Oops!!  Meant to ask about  BORDER crossing.

When driving to the McAllen TX area, where is the immigration office enroute?  We understand that you should stop and get your passport stamped prior to exit and upon re-entry.  TIA

I am trying to get a message to a specific person … described above.  I have numerous Mexican doctors (male and female) and have had them for years.   I will be grateful for information on how to contact this particular doctora.  I'm asking for someone who knows of someone who used her and was very pleased.  People who used her are no longer in town.   Really no need for lengthy explanation here.

Thanks for helpful information in advance. 

No need for you to explain yourself to a rude and judgementalhis response was a waste of time to everyone but himself.

Tried to edit my post .  Not Telmex, but Telcel.

Did your plan include a smart phone worth about $600.00 USD?

No phone, just the plan.

Yesterday, my husband and I applied for a Telcel plan rather than paying monthly.  A matter of convenience for us.  They ask for 3 references which we provided.  This afternoon, a rep from a Telcel showed up at our doorstep asking how long we lived here and if we owned the house.  Has anyone else had this experience?  We think this is overkill to simply get a cell phone package.  

Also Jose Melendrez’s store on the Ajijic plaza.

Thanks all.

TelCel switches over to T-Mobile when used in the US. You phone US numbers with 1-ac-xxx-xxxx and like above, if you have roaming turned on, will get 3-G internet.

How do I turn roaming on?  I am able to make phone calls.

I was told that I can use data on my Telcel phone while in the US.  Any suggestions how to access this?  Upon my arrival I turned my phone and data on and received service.  Have not been able to access the service since.  TIA

Perhaps ask a friend who lives locally if it can be shipped to their home.  I know several people who have items shipped from Amazon US.   Gated communities are very easy to locate.  

NOT CLOSED!!  Dance Fit and Sit Fit.  See link above.  Studio is on the Carreterra just west of Juarez, mountainside.  James is the instructor.  

Also snowbirdrentalcars@outlook.com.  

Thanks to all that replied.  My results were, at best inconsistent.  I call I’d made successfully would not go through a second time.  But, I didn’t know about turning on roaming.  Thanks Canyon Wren for this tip.  Unfortunately, back in Mexico before that suggestion came through.

I’ve searched the threads and don’t seem to see an answer to this particular topic.  I’m in the US.  I want to use my Telcel phone to call another US number.  I’ve tried 001, 011, just 10 digits but nothing seems to work.  Has someone had success roaming in US and calling US numbers?  Thanks in advance, I’m on the go and no time for further research.  It’s rather urgent.

Thanks everyone!

Rick, as I spelled it.  I think a stand alone clinic.

Looking for a doctor who performs PRP (platelet rich plasma) treatments for knee pain.  Until this week, there was a clinic in GDL (Regenerix) but they are closing down.  Is anyone aware of another clinic (yes I have done a Google search, unsuccessfully) locally or in GDL?
