Everyone I know uses Whatsapp for international calls and I certainly do.
Yes, all I want is a data package. No need for a phone line. But you still need the contract.

No. I got sent a notification from EE which was basically along the lines of: either go onto this contract which is £3 a month cheaper than not having a contract and we will charge you for roaming or don't go onto it and will charge you more and charge for roaming. I gave them their 30 days notice and now have a Portuguese number and contract through Meo.does that mean if one does not upgrade then they can continue as is , without roaming charge
I am with EE ( uk based ) and have not renewed my old contract , ( must be 3 + yrs now ) and although i mever check my bill i think it is still the same as it has always been , no increase for use .No. I got sent a notification from EE which was basically along the lines of: either go onto this contract which is £3 a month cheaper than not having a contract and we will charge you for roaming or don't go onto it and will charge you more and charge for roaming.

I was with them and also out of contract (on a rolling month to month arrangement) and the increase information was sent through to me about a month and a half ago.I am with EE ( uk based ) and have not renewed my old contract , ( must be 3 + yrs now ) and although i mever check my bill i think it is still the same as it has always been , no increase for use .
Are you portugal tho ?I was with them and also out of contract (on a rolling month to month arrangement) and the increase information was sent through to me about a month and a half ago.
I am in Portugal but I had only been in Portugal for about a month when I received the message. I had got stuck in the UK for just over 5 months because I wanted to be vaccinated before coming out to Portugal.Are you portugal tho ?
It is just the same with Android though, i have an old Huawei 2014, it lives in a drawer as a back up, no updates, certain apps will not load, bil has a Samsung Galaxy, same year, same problems, both phones work perfectly, they are simply designed to be thrown away and get your cash out for a later model, a definite rip off!I'm still on my iPhone 5s - which annoys Mr Shan intensely. In December, I will have had it for 6 years - the only problem with the phone is that Apple are supporting less and less via their updates, s now there are a few Apps, which are no longer supported and my ability to hotspot has disappeared. The thing that pisses me off is that there's nothing inherently wrong with the phone. I don't want a new phone.
The ridiculous thing is that my phone could do at least another 4 years if apple supported it! Such a waste... although, I will be using that damn phone until there is literally nothing on it that works. I shall not give in.It is just the same with Android though, i have an old Huawei 2014, it lives in a drawer as a back up, no updates, certain apps will not load, bil has a Samsung Galaxy, same year, same problems, both phones work perfectly, they are simply designed to be thrown away and get your cash out for a later model, a definite rip off!
Use it as an opportunity to clear out your contacts. I went onto a Portuguese number and halved my contacts.Have had my renewal notice from 3 and I am considering not renewing. The only reason to stay is to retain a UK phone number. Is there any solution for me that allows me to have a deminimus contract and to forward to my local French phone? I am challenged with carrying two phones!! Chez moi I utilise a 4G box so WhatsApp and FaceTime are fine when I am at home.
My dad had a 3 account and kept the number when he moved to 1p mobile, have a look at dual sim mobile phone to solve the 2 phone malarkey.Have had my renewal notice from 3 and I am considering not renewing.

Currently got 2 good phones left but when one need replacing will buy a dual sim phone- any recommendations?
Nor would I, nor did I, when I said Vodafone and EE would not be the last, I was thinking about Three among others who will follow suit and and also stop roaming in the coming 12 months
I could call my self Nostradamus, but the writing was always on the wallThree are jumping on the band waggon
