Topping Up In Portugal With Uk 02 Cards?

I'm in Portugal and mondowind wont let me top up with my UK credit cards... looks like there's not much I can do about that.

However, I can get someone to bring me a UK O2 Top Up voucher..... But will it work in Portugal?

The following:

"I got it working just now!!!

It seems I had to switch over to the o2 network then call the 4242 number directly instead of using that code. It then gave me a menu in Italian which gave the option to toput using a starmap alliance card.

For info a 30 Euro topup gave me 25 Euro of credit."

comes from this thread:

which suggests that you have to be using the network of the voucher being used to top up

If this is correct... I'm sh*t out of luck

Any help gratefully accepted

Richard
