As the Spring Festival approaches, many citizens choose to go abroad or travel abroad. How can their mobile phones roam abroad? How much is the phone bill abroad or abroad? How much do you charge for sending and receiving text messages? Many citizens still don't understand this.

Judging from some complaint cases received by reporters, when roaming abroad, we should pay attention to some misunderstandings or "traps" and take preventive measures. For example, receiving text messages can also lead to high fees. Before leaving the country, you should turn off your mobile phone voice mail or manual secretary desk. Myth 1:

The telephone bill is not much higher than that in China.

Take China Mobile as an example. By the end of June this year, the number of countries and regions where the company launched international roaming had reached 19 1. As far as the tariff standards for outbound roaming are concerned, mobile companies generally negotiate with overseas companies according to their own tariffs and the tariffs of overseas roaming destination mobile communication companies, which leads to different telephone charges and SMS charges for roaming to different countries or regions abroad, and even use the networks of different companies in the same area.

But there are rules to follow. For example, for answering domestic calls abroad, although the charging standard is different in different regions, different operators and different time periods (subject to the international roaming service manual provided by mobile operators), it is generally "local call fee × 1 15%, plus 0.8 yuan RMB×10/5% every 6 seconds". Generally speaking, the "local call charges" here will be surprisingly more expensive than domestic charges after being converted into RMB. For example, in Thailand, the cost of answering a domestic call is about 13 RMB per minute.

The cost of making a domestic phone call abroad is slightly more expensive than answering it, which is generally "city call fee ×115%+IDD ×115%/min". For example, in Thailand, the cost of making a domestic call is about 12 yuan ~ 15 yuan/minute.

Myth 2:

Receiving text messages is free.

In foreign countries, if you don't know the charge of SMS in advance, don't send SMS easily, because in some countries or regions, texting is even more expensive than calling directly. The charging principle for China mobile users to send short messages abroad (or overseas) is: local short message fee × 1 15%+0. 1 RMB per message. For example, in China and Hong Kong, the cost of sending short messages to mainland mobile users using Hongkong Telecom's network may be close to that of RMB in 4 yuan.

Pay attention even if you receive a text message. Although many countries receive SMS for free like China, in some countries, you have to pay for it. Even if you receive short messages such as customized weather forecast in China, you may have to charge a short message fee abroad. Users should ask the operator before leaving the country.

Guangdong Communications Administration recently pointed out in the Notice on Strengthening the Management of Short Message Service that any form of short message service (paid or unpaid) provided by short message service operators to users must be confirmed by users in advance before implementation, so as to avoid the problem that users may be charged extra information fees due to international roaming and other reasons.

Myth 3:

Call forwarding can save money

A citizen surnamed Wu who came back from the United States said that during his roaming in the United States, he didn't make a phone call or answer the phone, but only received some text messages from the secretary desk. After the bill came out, there were nearly a thousand yuan in international long-distance and roaming charges.

Many mobile phone users mistakenly believe that not answering the phone or turning off the phone abroad can save telephone bills. Their practice is to open voice mail or manual secretary service desk before leaving the country, and you can receive these incoming text messages after leaving the country. If necessary, they can buy a local calling card and call back.

Actually, it is not. This is a "trap" set by mobile phone users. When a visitor's voice goes to voice mail, the charge is higher. Because domestic users call your mobile phone, they have to call the network of overseas operators first, then transfer it to China, and finally send it to you by SMS, which is equivalent to receiving two international calls.

1. Preparation before travel?

Before traveling, please consult the customer service hotline of China Mobile or China Unicom to confirm whether there is international roaming in the visiting country, whether the mobile phone can be used, whether it is necessary to rent a special mobile phone, and consult the charging standard and dialing method of the visiting country. Then, take my ID card to the business hall, pre-store a certain phone bill, and you can open the international roaming and international long-distance functions and receive the international roaming service manual. 2. How to set up a mobile phone after going abroad?

Under normal circumstances, the user does not need to make any settings on the mobile phone, and the SIM card in the GSM mobile phone will automatically search for the current optional network; If you want to get the service through your designated network, you can do it through the corresponding settings in the mobile phone menu, specifically: Settings-Mobile phone settings-Network selection-Manual.

3. How to dial abroad?

For local overseas calls, you can usually dial directly. For domestic fixed telephone calls, it is "+86"-long distance area code-customer number, without "0" before the long distance area code. To call Guangzhou, dial "+8620 customer number". The mobile phone number for calling China is "+86".
