When you arrive, just buy a pay as you go phone. Using your UK one is expensive.

Good luck!!!

I called vodafone the other day and they have activated the passport facility on both mine and the OH's phones. They said it was 75p connection charge for call to the UK and then the minutes would come off of our inclusive minutes(we have around 750 between us). We thought this was pretty good. Without this they said it was 80p per minute!! What they didn't say was what the deal was with local Australian calls. Any ideas?? (This is obviously just a short term fix until we get our own Oz mobiles)
