Doc on tour, France, Spain, Morroco.

If I put that sim in the phone I'm gonna rack up a shit load of charges for every text and emails ...

Not necessarily, what provider is it with?

 

[Lenny HB]

Tam, receiving text in Morocco on a UK sim if free.

Ee

And yes they charge me for incoming texts etc too.

It's too complicated Mel I cannae get my head around it.

Tam, receiving text in Morocco on a UK sim if free.

Not according to the message I got when I entered Morocco.

I'll see if I can go check them but I'm sure everything is charged . The other issue is if I take the maroc sim out and put UK one it might bugger up my maroc settings the guy in the shop put in .. I'm worried about being left stuck if it does

 

[Lenny HB]

Once it has the setting for the sim it should jusr select the right setting for whichever sim is in the phone.

Tam, can you not alter your multi factor settings?
Usually you can say cannot use that method so use another to verify

But surely that would have to have already been setup or it defeats the object!

The only option I get other than the text is by letter ...which is no good.

I'll have to sort it all when back in Spain

Not sure about that, in EU it might be but using the EE calculator if it's on contract it costs £2.34 a minute for calls but it doesn't mention texts, however if it's a PAYG receiving texts is free.

Could you open a gmail account and forward your emails into it? I’m sure I did that at some point. Thing about gmail is you can access it on any computer.

It's a contract I have Mel

I found the text and it says nowt about it either but I'm not sure how I would do it as I need to have the screen open on the app when I receive the code by text to enter the code.

I'd therfore have to buy an ee roaming pass I think

I'd be aswell just waiting till I get back to Spain.

 

[Stonemags76]

If you wanted to swap the sims you could take a screen shot of the settings before you swap?

Tether the phone to your other phone with a Morocco sim in. That way you can still use the app without incurring EE data roaming costs.

I'm giving up with this nonsense, will have to wait till I'm back in Spain to sort all my emails and banking etc out , i just hope I don't have any issues with cards etc till I get back or I'll really be up shit creek .

I'll have to go top up some credit on this other phone tomorrow just to make sure it lasts . I don't want to switch sims over incase they don't work on the other phone as I had the guy in the shop set them up for me as all info is in Arabic and French.

Bleedin annoying and a stark reminder to anyone to carry a spare phone but slso have it set up as a clone to your main one ... I had0 started to clone mine but obviously hadn't completed it. It was my mums old phone and I didn't want to delete or wipe stuff off of it.. I've lost it all now unfortunately but I had to register it on my Google account etc to make it work .

I've got WhatsApp, park4night and a few other essential apps for now at least .

But if I get any response to job applications i won't see them till back in Spain now unfortunately.

All 3 of my email accounts need to send a code to my UK sim in order to verify its me I know its necessary fir security but its a pain when out the country for a while.


I did meet Barchetta47 in sidi Kaouki and collected my master cylinder.

That thing has just caused a whole load of grief and I truly believe I don't need the bleeding thing .


I also think I passed jongood on the drive up ... I spotted a nice clouliner then a UK plate and it was towing a trailer

Exchanged a wave as we passed ...I'm sure it was him but I'm sure he'll confirm either way.

I also saw that big euramobil with the steampunk type paint or wrap on it parked at sidi Kaouki... didn't get a photo though .

I left Mike n brenna at tamri this morning as they're here a bit longer than I'm staying in Morocco so they're now in tafedna where the donkeys were and I'm parked up at the windmill spot again between sidi kaouki and Essaouira, might have a look around there tomorrow and stock up in Carrefour before I continue north ...I'm planning to return to the beach parkup I had at oualidia for a few days ... might have to stop one night on route though .

Certainly was me, didnt realise it was you until almost past but not easy to stop and especially for you . Hopefully there will be other times.

Used to enjoy opening this thread to see what's happening. Not so the last few weeks.

All the drama of late should not be in a motorhome thread. Thing is, If I dump this thread into the belly locker, that will be the end of it as Tam can't see it there.. But that's where it will go if there are any more handbags in it. Let's get back on tour. Thanks

 

[Gina M]

I need some tonight piccies of your dogs Tam ASAP, or I will not sleep

 

[Barclaybasher]

How about a video of you opening the hab door with the dogs inside - love to see their reactions

 

[Northernraider]

Right I asked Jim to give the thread a bit of a clean up to remove all the shit. I've deleted and blocked who I needed to.

As far as I'm concerned I want that to be the end of it.

But I'm afraid you'll need to wait till tomorrow for pics of the dogs or anything else as I've no pics on this phone whatsoever.


Planning to have a walk round Essaouira tomorrow. Need to sort more data out too.


For tonight I'm off to bed

Take your broken phone with you as they might be able to save the data if you find a phone shop
