o2 My Europe Extra - Interesting Possibility

[meir]

O2 in Czech Republic has My Europe offer for postpaids only valid for limited number countries, but 120 minutes a day limit. But they promised to come up with something new before summer holidays.

I have a few questions related to the ReturnCall? Is it possible to top up RC account from overseas( I have never tried this one)? May I top up more than fiver? Let say to send them two or more top up messages, so my balance will be 10 pounds or more?

A good question. A while ago the question was asked if shortcode SMS works whilst roaming. I have never tried it, but I can't see why it would not work. I am away next week, so I will try it and report back to here. In any case, with short code SMS you always pay the normal network charge of an SMS to start off with, and I assume which if roaming you also pay this, but it is just a bit higher. That is independant of their 'return' SMS service. You are really then paying for the SMS recieved, and how are they to now where you are.

In terms of double topup, I can't see this being a problem (works on all their other services), but bear in mind ReturnCall autmatically send you a £5 top up SMS when your credit goes to near 0 anyhow:

"(*Once you run out of returncall credit, you will automatically receive a 5 pound recharge. To unsubscribe from this service please text RETURN OFF to short number 81223)"
