  • Where does it also state that in the USA a minute talk time does not actually equate to a minute in the UK

    In the T&C's which would have been sent out with your contract, try reading them, it really helps you avoid problems like these.

    You need to grow up, you posed the question,people took the time to inform you of the exact position and because the advice is not the advice you want to hear, you get abusive. Perhaps forums are'nt for you!

    There's a point where paranoia begins to become offensive.

    There are quite a few people on here who can confirm who works for who, but I wouldn't ask any of them to waste their time doing it on this thread.

    Good bye to you all. i Just hope that one day when you find yourself stuck in a foreign country and have your credit card stolen that when you reach for your phone to get help, all you get is an automated message telling you that you have been disconnected. Then you will understand my point

    Can't give you a definitive answer on your contract issue as I don't have a copy, but on balance, I would prefer my mobile company to discontinue the service if the pattern of calls was strange and from overseas rather than have a £1000 bill to settle. I trust you would concur.

    May I also ask why you didn't get a local sim to tide you over and contact Vodafone USA to get then to reconnect you via internal links to Voda UK.

    I also ensure that my network is aware if I am going abroad as I was previously cut off by Orange when in Bulgaria.

    You have to see that they are in a lose-lose situation and there are some recent posts complaining about networks NOT cutting off stolen sims when the calling patterns changed.
  • Funny how he didn't mention the stolen credit card in the first place.....
