Receiving call when abroad

[Anonymous]

Hi, if someone from the same network (O2) is abroad and calls me,do I also pay for the call or only the caller pays?

Regards,

Victoria.

Yes, the confusion has arisen from the thread's title.

So to answer both questions
1 - if the OP is abroad, see my first response.
2 - If the OP is in UK, no charge to them at all.

I think that pretty much covers it.:smileywink:

[Cleoriff]

Never thought there was that much confusion

I can see clearly now the rain has gone

[jonsie]

Well that developed nicely

OK sorry for being late to the party but the OP still hasnt been answered and the links provided are hopeless.

So for clarity sake say someone in the UK on o2 calls someone in Thailand, for example, does the person in Thailand get charged once they answer it ?

Is the person in Thailand roaming on O2 or is the UK person calling a Thai number?

Whats the answer to both ?

The person in Thailand would have no idea if its another annoying estate agent do you want to sell your house type of call so seems unfair that if they answer a nuisance call they have to pay for it, alternatively it could be a life and death call from a number they don't recognise so they feel compelled to answer it

PS How utterly useless is the automated 'aura' help response ?

If an O2 customer is roaming outside of the EU they will be charged for answering any calls on their mobile. The person calling them is not charged.
If an O2 customer calls any international number when in UK they are charged, but the person receiving it is not.
