I tried to connect using mine from Heathrow and sat within sight of a whole bunch of attenae, network provider Orange fed me (an Electronic Engineer who studied radio comms) a swag of incredulity about it being the SIM card which contains no more than my tel numbers which don't seem to be amiss. But when I got back home I found the girlfriend's phone had done the same. Same model, same network, almost the same day and the same 2 week gap since last used. Bought the same week two years ago. Who would give me odds on it being a coincidence? No one? Thought so! |

So phone company told one small but telling porky. Orange and red not comapitble obviously. |
