video call ?
Are video calls out with your call time and data allowance generally?
I just mean straight video call from your contacts rather than with things like Skype. Im on android with o2. |

'Straight' video calls through the network will be chargeable, no network includes them in your free allowances any more (Three did a few years back but I'm 99% certain they don't any more).
Video calls through Skype or similar will just use your data allowance, assuming the network doesn't block such services. |

I was actually just searching and going to post back that I found that result Roush.
So seems I do then get included video calls as part of package. Going by Steps post, O2 maybe are the only ones in that case. thanks all. |

It seems O2 still include them. See my link above.
I guess with the rise of smartphones and competing services that don't cost anything, the networks are having to react. |

At least we both found out Step
![]() In the case of realising this I just tried it (yes, I fear getting charged of things) and I'm out of 3G range apparently, so cant test it now.
