Using USB Broadband Dongle abroad - don\'t!
I thought I would post a word of warning using a USB Broadband dongle abroad, I heard this on Jeremy Vine's Show on Radio 2 (Friday) Martin Lewis Moneysaving expert bloke was talking about saving money when you go abroad.
He quoted a story of someone recently logging on to the BBC Iplayer whilst abroad (and using their dongle) to watch an episode of 'The Apprentice'.
When they got home they had a nice bill for £46,000!
(No that is not a typo) So be warned!
