Using your phone in Guadeloupe

Anonymous
Not applicable

I've checked online and it says that I can use my phone in Guadeloupe as if I was at home even though it is not in Europe. When I phoned up O2 they said no.

I'm not sure what to believe?

If it’s not in Europe then O2 are correct as you will be charged international rates

From Wiki..

"Guadeloupe, like the other overseas departments, is an integral part of France. As a constituent territory of the European Union and the Eurozone, the euro is its official currency"

Not being good at 'Geography' this was a lesson learnt for me wink

What's in a name eh? 

I can see how they would be easily mistaken. 

Good to know that the phone can be used as at home but sad that customer service got it wrong again.
