Solved: Roaming charges overseas. - Page 2

Anonymous · ‎20-11-2012

Hi, I recently went on holiday to Turkey and switched my phone on (Sony Experia) and in one day I racked up a £20 charge. I didn't do anything, no calls no text messages. My question is thus; is this normal and how can i stop these charges happening pls. I am going on holiday to Morocco on 26/11 for a week and I need to know if I'm likely to get clobbered again for just turning my phone on. Cheers

Hard to comment without knowing more but you would surely not take a phone with you that you didn't intend to switch on at some point.....?

And it was the USA...so any quick switch on to check stuff....?
