Never ever had a problem at all the PRO XL. I have optus and keep my home(optus) mobile for sms's only while on holidays. I have a holiday phone i bought cheap off ebay i use this phone for a Bali PRO XL sim card(as it is not locked). I have only started taking phones with me the last 2 trips, 1st time was because teenagers were going their own ways 2nd time because we left the kids at home(1st time) I even bought special charge to make a phone call to home as the Bali one is so much cheaper and when the credit runs out you just get disconnected( we did this when we was missing the kids, Mmmmmmm how i would love to have that feeling right now since it is school holidays, I only have 1 on school holidays now and that one is driving me nuts)
I use to LOVE going to Bali phone free, gone are those days. I must admit they do come in handy if you go different ways, or if people are trying to catch up with you.
