Calling abroad

Anonymous — Thu, 29 Oct 2015 15:46:57 GMT

3 weeks ago I had to make an urgent phone call to a taxi company (UK) from Hong Kong. I didn't dial a code. I just made the call as normal (selecting number to make a call).

Is this something I should be concerned about?

To see how much a minute it will cost look here http://www.o2.co.uk/international/internationalhub select going abroad it would have cost 80p a minute assuming a normal telephone number

It will be charged at standard roaming rates.
What do you mean by "concerned about" ?

From the international pages

More information about using your phone abroad

You can make and receive calls, browse the internet and send and receive texts, just like you do at home.

- That means that you can just dial numbers saved in your phonebook to make a call"

So no issues there

No it all sounds pretty straightforward.....and as it was to a taxi company I presume it was no more than a minute anyway...
