13:05.14 | cityLights | Hi , I am traveling to london for 4 days , I seek a cellular data with prepaid which allows voip |
13:05.18 | cityLights | and advice? |
13:07.23 | skinjob | the cheapest way might be to get a pay as you go sim on a UK network |
13:09.53 | skinjob | or if i'm working in london i go and sit in the grafton at the top of tot court road and use the free wifi :) (coffees are a bit upmarketly priced tho, i think its a fair trade off to avoid the general central london rif raf) |
13:11.54 | cityLights | thanks |
13:12.18 | cityLights | yet I seek a name I can go to at the air port and buy the card |
13:12.35 | cityLights | does voda phone allow voip? |
13:12.37 | skinjob | i'd go for vodafone or O2 in the uk |
13:12.54 | skinjob | actually not sure aboit voip on that one |
13:13.16 | cityLights | can I use a O2 german sim in the uk and charge it locally? |
13:13.35 | skinjob | roaming costs tend to be really expensive |
13:13.59 | skinjob | i used my uk one in germany and france and it just eats your credit very quickly |
13:13.59 | boudiccas | cityLights; doubtful |
13:14.30 | cityLights | in germany I had to buy the sim at 15 euro and charge it at 15 euro for 1g traffic |
13:14.52 | cityLights | then I found-out that I could have bought the card at an outlet at 1euro |
13:15.06 | cityLights | so I go online to ask the locals - what to do |
13:15.32 | skinjob | i seem to remember my vodafone dongle being something like 25 quid with a free couple o gigs on it |
13:16.35 | skinjob | but that was for a dongle with a sim in it |
13:16.50 | skinjob | theres sim only stuff on the O2 website |
13:16.58 | skinjob | might tell you there aboit VOIP also |
13:17.25 | cityLights | o2 is cool with voip in bermany |
13:17.35 | cityLights | s/bermany/germany/ |
13:19.50 | skinjob | if you re going to buy one I would find a local retailer and see if they have a pay as you go O2 dongle... irritatingly they will probably try and sell you a contract that you dont need that you need to call india or vietnam or something to activate |
13:19.53 | skinjob | you dont want that |
13:20.20 | skinjob | find a PC world near to where you will be staying |
13:21.01 | skinjob | i dont normally recommend pc world, or physical retailers, but if you really have to get soemthing quickly and dont have a postal address i guess thats the way |
13:22.35 | skinjob | i think the whole roaming data cost thing is a scam to be honest |
13:35.51 | cityLights | i agree, this is way I choose 3g+voip |
