Cellular Phone Forum / Country Specific / Australian Group / December 2004Orange Prepaid to have roaming access from 13/01/2005
For details, see <www.orange.net.au/prepaid> > For details, see <www.orange.net.au/prepaid> I wish Vodafone Pre-paid would roam, it is ridiculous that Vodafone post-paid can and pre-paid can't! What's the big bloody deal here?

What's the big bloody deal here? Vodafone prepaid is the ONLY Australian prepaid service that can roam. I believe that it's automatically available to a select group of countries but others can be activated with a call to customer service. It will eventually be automatically available to all existing roaming countries, to all customers. Hmmm, or are you talking about National Roaming here? Oops, I think you are.

Tata! :) Yep National Roaming, it is available to the post-paid customers, but not pre-paid. Fair enough pre-paid having higher call costs etc. but as far as I am concerned it should NOT be considered a second rate system to post-paid, I believe it has developed beyond that now and should have all the same features available.

I believe that it's Vodafone's publicly stated position: prepaid customers are not 2nd rate. They make a big deal of it in press releases sometimes when releasing new plans. > I believe that it's Vodafone's publicly stated position: prepaid > customers are not 2nd rate.

In anycase, Vodafone's National Roaming is only for a very small part of Victoria and Tasmania. I don't even know why they bothered setting it up. >> Well they ARE 2nd rate when it comes to National Roaming. > Tell Vodafone. > In anycase, Vodafone's National Roaming is only > for a very small part of Victoria and Tasmania. I > don't even know why they bothered setting it up. Just another hare brained scheme of Vodafone's that they toss in the bin along with the dirty shirt. No surprise that those fuckwits have never managed a profit. > >I wish Vodafone Pre-paid would roam, it is ridiculous that Vodafone > >post-paid can and pre-paid can't!

He's clearly talking about NATIONAL roaming, you fool >He's clearly talking about NATIONAL roaming, you fool Clear is it? There's nothing in his post that makes it CLEAR that it's about national roaming. I wish I could send "linked messages" and "multimedia messages (MMS) using Orange. My Nokia phone supports the features but the network service still doesn't... :-( > For details, see <www.orange.net.au/prepaid> |
