Thanx Mccowby!!!
Saw gsm-suomi.. but currently we dont have a contract and are spending unnecessarily on a sunbscription that can be negotiated..and i was thinking that it could be 2 N95 phones for 2 years( for around €75 p.m) as comapred to €50 we pay per month..currently..

Hei, guys... new here..

I was looking for something else when i saw your topic. That reminded me i had Sonera for some time, nothing to complain about it,... except the costs, eg. for text messages, which i considered pretty high. So i asked around and i came to the conclusion that DNA prepaid is cheaper, therefore better (i thought). Now, i am on DNA, but i have a "liiiiittle" problem with it: i can't send or recieve text messages to and from abroad -- Romania, in my case.

Does anyone have an idea what's this all about? Is it a DNA-thinggie or it's just an error which can be fixed?

Thanks!

Might be to do with your prepaid thing... check with DNA customer service.

hmmm I didnt get the offer from Elisa yet...but as far as I found out, the Telephone operators who you call for the offers are not allowed to negotiate or give any bargains...BUT the mymmalat ( or the stores) that you go to and bargain, those people are able to make offers cos they have a sepcial access to some of the offers...
/me get ma old phone...but still goin to the Mymmmalat

it depends on the roaming agreement the operator has- this isn't just relevant when YOU go abroad, but also if you want to send sms to someone abroad while you are in Finland.

Sonera and Elisa have the most number of roaming contracts. The other operators are worse. Some of the minor operators partner with other european operators and send their SMS via them but then things can get complicated and messed up (like receiving the same SMS from a friend in Finland 10x while I was in UK).

Best ones I've found so far are DNA, which my other half uses and has no problems contacting me on. It's got pretty good international rates, he used to stick 50 on every month and be able to use his phone the whole month getting hold of me. Sonera seem to be a pretty good network, theyre the company my provider has a roaming contract with, and I always get a decent signal even in the middle of the woods. Highly useful when they dont have the little man and woman pictures on the loos and you need to go!

Hei!

I've got my problem stated above some while ago solved. And that's: changing prepaid.
DNA has contracts with only two mobile phone service providers in Romania, that's Orange Romania and Cosmote, I think, so that explained the fact that i couldn't send nor recieve SMS-es from Ro.

This time, before changing my prepaid kortti, I called to the provider and i chose Elisa.
