Im going touring Europe this summer on the trains.. shud be fun

was gona take an O2 Pay as you go, but its bloody expensive.. O seems to be much cheaper: 70p a min to call, 30p a min to recieve, 20-40p a sms, and 40p a MMS - quite reasonable (apart from GPRS at £10/mb!)

However I then have to decide if I should take my SL45i or my SPV (to play games on the trains, read books, and take photos)..

When I asked the guy at O (who was very nice.. read below!) if my insurance was valid (like if a get mugged by a dude who aint never seen a colour screen mobile!, or if i simply have too much fun in Amsterdam :wink:, and drop it). His reply didnt fill me wif confidence to be honest.. he didnt sound sure.. all he sed was if i didnt play football wif it or anything that would be braking the terms then its cool - but what are the terms?! If i loose it in Europe somewhere - am i covered? If i get robbed, am i insured?

Also, wot am i covered for in general? (e.g. droppin it, etc)

...oo yeh, the guy at orange.. very nice - was havin a chat to me and he asked where i was going for my first stop.. i said Amsterdam (of course!) and to which his reply, "you'll enjoy the coffee shops!"..

Hope you guys can help :wink:

Amusingly, apparently it *doesn't* cover accessories (I queried it on a dodgy carry case). So look after the camera.... or that'll be £99.99, sir. A less than impressive attitude.

you'll definatly enjoy Amsterdam.... I live nearby, need some adresses?? :wink:

further... your insurance covers the same in foreign countries as it would at home.... theft, certain forms of damage.... you name it....
