This comment, Steve has saved me from alot of heartache, so Thank You! I called my Virgin Mobile 'Live Advisor' and asked if I could use my US phone in the UK. The reply was yes. I pressed on with questions asking about codes placing calls there, receiving calls from here. The tone of the young man was how should I say not giving me confidence in his knowledge. So, I asked him to confirm with a supervisor his assertion of my ability to use my US Virgin Mobile in the UK. After a minute of silence on hold. He came back and said,"I just found out our phones will not work in the UK because they will be out of the Sprint network." So, I'll leave home without it!
