mobile network charges help

Hi people, I wonder if anyone can help me with a few questions i have regarding mobile networks.

For the past 5 years or so I have been on 3 (Three), and so I'm unaware about other networks.

Can some people who are using Orange, Vodafone and O2 tell me whether the networks charge for text delivery notifications and voicemail? As far as I am aware, I have never been charged for either by 3.

Also, is there any way to check your remaining minutes/texts on these networks? Something similar to the "my three" service?

Thanks so much for your help :grin:

    o2 payg: o2 don't have delivery reports but you get a delivery receipt if you prefix your text with *0#, this is free

    voicemail is 10p per call

    you can ring 4444 option 2,2 or text balance to 20202
