Great little article on how to reduce your data on your Iphone. """"Set it up""" and you can see what you are using and don't have any nasty shock when the bill comes.

But you have to jail break your phone. I am sure not too many people would want to do that. But I know lots of people that do. But would not do it as it it would void your warranty with Apple.

Most of the telcos in Australia provide a usage meter for free now, without the need for jailbreak. I know that Telstra has a couple of ways to access it and they are pretty reliable...

Ok thanks for that. I am with Amaysim and I was not aware that they might be offering this service.

#100# works for me, you need to press dial after #100# which then gives you the options to choose from

Not yet, but we just had a delightful Thai meal at the Churchill Arms in Kensington! :mosking:

Back to great food country tomorrow, staying with a friend in Burgundy for a few days before heading for home (in Lorraine!)

But the Amaysim App only works over wifi here - data is too costly! .

Hey P, do you mean Kensington in England? Is it the pub with heaps of flowers all around? I used to pass it 100 times on the London double deckers. Brilliant pub. My son was living there (Kensington) last year and been there quite a few times. He lives in Cannes now. SO might going again this year, but quite sure as yet.

Data is not too too much with Amaysim, Been to Tassie a few weeks ago and used a little data and @5ct aMB not too much. But in all fairness have not used too much data.

PArent Company in France of Amaysin is SYmio which I used last year and it is useless even to travel in Europe. Tried in Prague and Italy found it frustrating as it would not send SMS from "abroad". They may have changed since last September. Not sure. I know that they are expensive....FREE is not bad also.

Enjoy the food for me!
Cheers
Gigi
