How come you are not benefiting from this: http://www.vodafone.com/start/media_relations/n...
I am. At least I think I am. I called CS over a week ago to make sure I am. But when my next bill comes in, going to be checking I am.

I'm not going to tell you how far I'd got before I realised you weren't completely serious, and were in fact only a little bit serious. Too good.

I've seen those shoes before. Ewan, I know I promised I wouldn't tell anyone about them, but... oh.

Re: Vodafone to charge more for VOIP from June

To John,
One of your problems (at least) is that the Truphone Wizard only presents you with Wi-Fi connection options during set-up. The company has only ever described its service as going over Wi-Fi and the Internet, however, so it's not doing anything unexpected. Ironically, one of the original reasons for this was to protect customers from 'bill shock' caused by using VoIP with expensive data tariffs. It has always been possible, but not recommended, for 'uber-users' to manually delve into the settings (rather than use the Wizard) and to force connection over a different data carrier. As data tariffs have improved, there are plans to change this soon to make it part of the Wizard.
Truphone doesn't only work on open WiFi; it will work on password-protected Wi-Fi (WEP or WPA/2) as well, as long as you know the settings and enter them when prompted.
There are also plans to improve the Wizard/install process. Meanwhile, have you tried watching any of the installation videos on YouTube? Try this link http://tinyurl.com/ynvtrt as I don't know which handset you have.
Failing all that, contact support@truphone.com - they'll sort you out I'm sure.
Cheers,
Tim.
