Just returned from a week in northern Spain (the green, wet area) and found
that my Tesco mobile would not make outgoing calls or send texts despite my
receiving a text as soon as I landed saying that calls would cost 40p per
minute. I was able to receive calls and texts fine.

Whenever I tried to make a call I got a voice message in English saying
"This option is not available. Please contact our customer care services."
The network (which had good coverage) was Movistar.

Anyone else had a similar experience, or has any one been able to use Tesco
in Spain?
