Heh-heh. Naah, I just meant the international calls aren't all that cheap. (Now there's a market opportunity in Poland, what with a TPSA landline call to the USA or Europe costing 1.49 PLN. TELE2 charges 66 Gr -- still 25 US cents a minute.) And three-month non-extendable recharges aren't exactly competitive...

Yes, but international calls from mobile phones are generally crazy expensive here (especially to landlines or all phones in RPP countries). The weiderst thing is that international rates in Tak-Tak, mBank mobile, iPlus simdata (and until last summer also in Simplus) are still based on pre-2004 monopolist tariffs of Telecom Pologne

. The only workaround is in Orange - availability of 708 callthrough numbers (of course, with all the disadvantages: paying for dialling and, what follows, for unaswered/busy calls.

I think it could have a HUGE success also in Italy!

And there's nothing to be proud of...

You said that after watching the ads? I suppose that there are many more countries where it may be a success

.

Such sexist ads for the same target group aren't any new here, but so far they have usually been beer ads (not Żywiec - it's rather an "upper-shelf" product for middle class

).

Wow, luckily I always drink Żywiec when I'm in Poland!

BTW I'm sure it would have success in many countries...

That's why I mentioned it so that you could be sure you didn't drink "sexist" beer

What about Tyskie and Lech? Sometimes I drank them too, but not so often!
