Mobile phone costs abroad start to fall
The cost of using a mobile phone abroad is falling significantly
thanks to the range of services now available to holidaymakers. The
major networks, Vodafone,T-Mobile and O2, have been criticised for
charging customers up to £1.50 per minute to make calls while
abroad. They also charge high fees to receive calls outside of the
UK. However companies such as 0044.co.uk are making it possible for
travellers to make local calls at local rates, make cheaper
international calls and receive calls for free. They sell you a SIM
card which contain the phone number and other data which temporary
replaces your own existing SIM while abroad. The new card has a
different telephone number so when users replace their own card
they are advised to leave a message on their old number telling
callers that they can be reach on the new number.
