| Mobile Phones for International Travel
This is particularly aimed at those of you who travel between UK and Switzerland fairly regularly.
Do you have separate phones/contracts for different countries, or have you found a universal deal?
There are often stories about that if you use a phone in another country, the costs can be horrendous, particularly for mobile internet.
At present I have a Vodaphone contract without internet in the UK. In Switzerland, I am charged the same for calls and texts as in the UK plus a flat fee per call.
I am looking at upgrading to something like a Blackberry, iPhone or Google G1. Suppliers in the UK have given me wildly varying information from vague, misleading or unbelievable to 'Don't bother trying to use mobile internet overseas'.
If you have separate phones for each country, which one is best for international call, Swiss or UK?
Looking forward to your comments and suggestions. Thanks
