Taking phone on holiday

Hi,

I've got a Nokia 3410 on O2 pay as you go.

I'm going on holiday to Czech rep. and Austria.

Do you know if my phone will work?

Thanks

the phone will phsyicaly work, however you will need to check out the O2 website to see if your pay as you go tarif will.

If it does, take a LOT of credit with you as inbound and outbound calls will cost you a lot of money!

Texting will be the best way to use it.

Note: Don't leave your phone in a cab.

I just came back from Rome, and I'm afraid there's a cab driver over there with his hands on my ol' Samsung
