Okay, I need to vent. I recently drove cross-country and was told I shouldn't worry about roaming charges, so I didn't. I just got the bill it is over 800 bucks (all roaming charges). I am not paying the bill, so no cell phone. I am off of cell phones for awhile.
I want to be able to talk to my family and friends still. Got any advice. Should I start writing letters (do people even write letters anymore?) or focus my energy on email now?
GROWL.

Don't want to mention any names but, was it Verizon?

It would help us mere mortals (who don't possess isp) if you told us which country you travelled in and also your country of residence. Then we could know what to steer clear of.
Thanks.

I'm sure you meant ESP ... as your post here indicates you do possess ISP.

The key here is ... who told you not to worry about roaming charges ... your cell provider, or just some bloke?

There's the tried and true land line service from your phone company. Not to mention cellular pre-pay services.

Okay, sorry for just being pissed and not providing any information. I was traveling across the United States on the cheap. Not as easy as it used to be.
My solution is I've purchased a block of time from onesuite instead of getting another phone. I'm sure I'll get another cell eventually, but for the moment this works pretty well for my needs. My needs being the need not to spend a lot of money.
Thanks for listening to me bitch.
