Just tried sending from an Orange to a Voda and nothing ??
Does this still work (If it's a GSM standard command it should ?)

Yep. Ive just started on payg with orange and after reading this turned delivery reports off straight away.
I checked my balance an id definitely been charged.

so is it just me who thinks this charge isn't suitably/sufficiently highlighted?

yeh, it is a bit sneaky. but it is written into the talkplan - i know most people don't always check this. but it's definately worht a read, especially if you want to know out-of bundle rates, roaming, data etc.

pS) i believe *0# only ever worked on o2. o2 actually do not allow SMs delivery reports to be run through the handset menu, only via *0#.
