thanks Jackie, I'll take a look.  I like my N70 that I've already got and
might just see if I can continue using it with a pay as you talk tarrif.

Hi Alex

I am a Pay-As-You-Talk customer with Vodafone because I don't want a
contract.  This scenario works well for me, as I buy text bundles because I
text a lot more frequently than I talk on the mobile.  With Vodafone, you
can buy 70 texts for £5, 200 for £10, 500 for £15, and 675 for £20.  They
offer similar voice packs for minutes too.  They offer Any Net and Any Time
price plans, and you can call 2345 free of charge at any time to top up or
buy voice and text bundles.

Hope that gives you an idea of what to expect if you opt for the Vodafone
Pay-As-You-Talk tariffs.

Jackie

  I just might contact you some time this year Steve, as my contract runs
out on my N70 with vodafone.  I'd like to continue with them if I can, but
they can be a pain to do business with: I know (large sigh).  I think I
would like to try a pay as you talk package next time, I believe it would
probably be cheaper for me.

  Hi Alex,

  I should be, I have had a great relationship with Talks for about five
years <Smile>.  And I love mobile phones, except the Auasys <Smile>.

  All the best

  Steve

  Hi Steve

  I've altered all my mobile numbers in my phone following your suggestion,
thanks very much indeed.  It seems you are a mobile phone anorak.  Great
stuff!

  Hi Jackie,

  This is a simple one, and one I recommend everyone should follow.  Let me
explain.

  My business mobile is 07956334938.  OK, now when you add me as a contact,
instead of adding me as 07956334938, add me as +447956334938.  Firstly, this
will always get picked up when you receive a text, because when the number
comes through from the mobile carrier, it comes through in that format, and
secondly, it means that you can dial that number from anywhere in the world,
without altering it.  For example, when you go abroad, you can still dial
that number.  So drop the 0 in your contacts, and add +44 instead.  Works
every time.

  And for those that don't have their punctuation switched on, there is a
plus symbol before the 44.  To get that into your contacts, press star
twice.

  Hope this helps.

  All the best

  Steve

  All the best

  Hi Listers

  Could someone please answer a quick question for me which I am posting on
behalf of a friend.

  He has a Nokia 6600, and it seems that although he has added people to his
contacts book in the usual way, whenever messages arrive in his inbox from
them, TALKS is not telling him their names.  He has been into the menu to
check that first names are announced in his preferred order, but he is
completely baffled as to why the texts he gets do not say the names of his
recipients.  Frankly I can't work this out either.  Does anyone have any
ideas please?  Is it possible he has his display set incorrectly or
something?

  Jackie
