09 Iceland

[Marc]

Hello, all,

I said I'd report when I got back from Europe, so here it is, though it's not adding much to the discussion.

In a word, I couldn't get 09 to work at all. It may be that the problem is a conflict between 09 and my phones. The US distributor for 09 says there is a known problem with Nokia phones, and both my phones are Nokias. The one that I was using the 09 card in was unable to call out to anywhere--whether dialling normally or using the 09 menu. Nor could it contact any of the 09 customer services.

When I tried calling TO the 09 phone from my other Nokia (which was using a Bouyguetel prepaid card), the call never went through; it was almost immediately disconnected. Why?

I called 09 customer service from the Bouyguetel phone, and was told I'd get a call back from a tech rep either that night or the next day. It never came.

I guess I'll pursue this now that I'm back in the States, but it's not exactly front-burner material.

Wish I could report cheerier news.

Marc
