Cruise Ship Roaming

Once I made some calls in France where a billing error meant I was not charged either. However as it was a contract phone I was eventually charged around 3 months later! I suppose that cannot happen on a prepaid though.

Interesting about your cruise ship incoming being free though with voda passport. I wonder if the crew on that ship know that too? I have a friend who is a ships engineer who is constantly complaining how expensive ships-side voice communication is for him.

As for me, when I was on a cruise a while ago, my phone was deliberately off and I was actually quite happy that I felt cut off from the world. People couldn't even get me an "emergency"! Bliss! Pity that is no longer the case!
