Nope - Orange and T-M do not merge services alas. Just network coverage. T-M dont even do Orange Wednesdays!

My plan is up for renewal and I will stick with T-M. Vodafone's "Data Traveller" is too restrictive and I have used the "World Email Booster" many times without a hitch, tethered to a laptop.

Are you using a blackberry for this? Thanks, Chris

i will vouch for that i used my blackberry and tethered it to my laptop in egypt recently without any problems
ive also used in thailand and mexico and most of europe this year as well
its very good value for money plus you can just add it for a month at a time and then remove it as well
as it says below email data normal date surfing the web ect is all fine and i use my phone pretty much every day when away for at least 30 mins - 1hr each day and my neice was using it for facebook twitter and stuff and all i have been charged is the montly fee

just an update that the World Email Booster for Blackberry does include email data, normal data, BBM and tethered data on laptops - tried and tested with no additional costs

Which phone did you use for it? The blackberrys don't seem to have good screens for browsing the internet!

I'm with tmobile, on the flex 40 plan, I'm going away later this week to india, called tmobile today and was sold the unlimited blackberry international booster.

Having read different forums, I'm confused, will I be able to tether my blackberry via macbook to browse internet without extra charge? This forum seems to say yes but other places it says it can only be tethered for free for blackberry playbook, any other device will be charged.

Any assistance? Thanks

Now t-mobile has joined the greed train , you can no longer get the £15.32 worldwide blackberry booster as they have stopped it now , now outside europe you will be charged a whapping £7.50 mb although they say its capped at £4.00 a day , so you will reach the cap before even using the first mb , I think this is designed to capture light users . so new charges from April 12 = a potential £4 x 30 = £120 vice there previous £15.32 that is a monthly rise of £104.68 if you reach your cap each day which is not hard . How can they justify the rise in price as they have been providing the same service for £15.32 for 30 days unlimited worldwide & Blackberry handles all data on there local servers unlike iPhones etc which use the local Networks to send the data back home all the way , Thats why you have to pay extra for your blackberry service . I will be looking for a Blackberry sim that I can use worldwide thats cheaper than £120 per 30 days to run .

They haven't. I just ordered it today as I am off to Switzerland for a month. And even if they had, the max you can be charged a month is £48 not £120.
