What do you guys do when travelling with your phone?
First off you travel to Europe where all phone service provider contracts are not allowed to charge excessive rates just because you travel to another country, all European service providers opperate a reciprical service, ensuring only a tiny extra cost when using a roaming service.
North America seems light years behind us when it comes to mobile phone customer service practices and costs! I see a huge business opportunity for one of the main European service providers to "Clean up" if if it were not for the fact that US and Canadian governmental legislation suports this blatant rip off of their population by allowing telecom monopolies to grow and prosper unchecked. could this be because of "Political donations" ? I think so.
