Leaving the country

[Anonymous]

I currently have a pay monthly account with o2. I am due to leave the country for approx 4 months and wonder is there is anyway of freezing my account as i will not able to us my phone while out of the country?

Unfortunately not unless you are a member of the armed forces travlling to a war zone.

Your best option would be to use TuGo over wifi to utilise your allowances.

If you didn't want to take the phone with you, you could allow a family member or friend to use it whilst you were away, but ultimately, you will still be responsible for the bills.

Or perhaps just swallow the 4 months cost and leave the sim somewhere safe at home.
