	My advice is to not use Call In Europe. There are many safer options available. Although it may be convenient, your usage with Call In Europe is directly tied to your credit card with no fraud detection or charge limit. The result is if your phone or card is stolen, the thief can rack up several thousand dollars worth of calls until you discover the theft and notify Call In Europe. Their terms and conditions state you are still liable for all the charges, fraudulent or not, until the day you notify them. If you don’t discover the theft right away, you will find yourself with fraudulent charges on your credit card that CIE will not refund. This is what happened to me. CIE sued me for $5000 that was charged on the phone during the month prior to the realization that the phone was stolen. It's too late for me, but I don't want anyone else to go through this nightmare as well. Guest
