Telna Again?

This is personal...I don't like postpaid...if the sim card is lost, and I've heard many cases of lost sim cards say by a son or daughter who may not even realize the sim card has been lost, you are responsible for all calls made till its reported lost. With prepaid, the most you can be out is the value on the card...the solution to the bankruptcy problem of so many of the international cards is to keep small balances and only top up when absolutely necessary.

There is that. With a prepaid you can easily loan the card to someone and know the exact extent of your risk. The solution for the card being lost is to use a PIN and don't loan the card out. I've traveled extensively and never lost a SIM but maybe I've just been lucky (or very careful). I have had phones saved by using a shoestring as belt lanyard attached to the phone. Having worked on ships so long, I tend to keep important things attached so they can't fall overboard.
