Windows Phone to the United Kingdom June 2014 scam

I had 3 phone calls at home this morning of Indian-sounding gentleman claiming to be Windows OS support informing me that I have a bug in my BONES. They are very persistent and reminded even when I told them not to do so and hung up. The number they call 0161 408 1867 East. I would like to point out that I don't know that their persistence will deceive many people to give up personal data.

    If I want to use it as a Blackerry in the UK do I have to buy a UK data card? Yes, to use the data of BlackBerry, e-mail, Facebook, etc., you will need a local SIM card with the data of BlackBerry on her Plan.

    If I want to use it as a phone to the United Kingdom, I presume it will deduct from my Egyptian phone balance as an international call, is that correct? Only if you keep the Egyptian SIM card in the device, which will deduct calls on a roaming international rates. For three weeks, you might be better with a local UK SIM.

    Can I use it as a phone to the United Kingdom with an existing UK Vodophone sim card? See above, Yes

    It must be unlocked to use with a card sim/data of the United Kingdom, it is said that it can be used in all EU member countries. Maybe it won't need to be unlocked if the paperwork has this notation in there.

    Where can I find support in the United Kingdom, are there stores? Depending on what mobile operator, you use (Vodafone, 3, Tmobile, Orange)

  • Where I could get a copy of Windows 7 Ultimate? in 2014, to the United Kingdom?

    Hello, I'm building a PC and I need in an operating system, I hate the Windwos 8 or 8.1 because it tries to be more than a Tablet, but I want to get a copy of legitiment disk copy Ultimate de Windows 7 (64 bit) within the United Kingdom and must be less than 200 pounds, I'll look at the main electronic in my area retailers , but most of them sells more, Windows 7 and I looked online, but I fear that they could be counterfeit version fo Windows 7 Ultimate, so I like some suggestion on where I could purchase this product and has TO BE LEGIT, UNDER 200 POUNDS, WINDOWS 7 ultimate (64 bit).

    Thank you!

    Windows 8.1 is ok in desktop mode, is much easier to buy and is more likely to be within your budget...

    If you don't like the default Start Menu or applications, use an alternative start menu...

    Free...

    http://classicshell.sourceforge.NET/

    In $ 5, but it's like Windows 7...

    http://www.stardock.com/products/Start8/

    Note that the alternatives don't convert STEP of Windows 8 for Windows 7. They give you just a more recognizable work environment.

    In order to avoid completely the front end of the subway, you must install Windows Live Essentials 2012 for client library and email or whatever your preferences. You will also need to install Adobe Reader or Foxit Reader (my preference) to support the reading of PDF files.

  • What are the disadvantages to download Windows 7 Home Premium from the U.S. instead of the United Kingdom?

    Activation

    My PC vendor failed to provide me with a product code, so I can't activate Windows. This forum told me I have to buy another copy of Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. The cost of the software during the purchase of the United States is much less expensive than when purchased in the United Kingdom. Is there any disadvantage when downloading the product of the United States?

    It will work very well in the United Kingdom, there are no geographical restrictions on activation outside the United States.

  • Why has the United Kingdom iPhone7 still logos FCC and how to make one with them?

    Yesterday I went to the Apple Store to check new iPhone 7/more to those who are disappointed that the FCC, CE logos & ID are always present. Why this has not changed since September of 2015 when the iPhone 6s logos have been deleted in other countries like the United States and Canada ect? I thought that maybe it would be at least one year so that it can enter into force here in the United Kingdom, but no such thing happened. In this spirit and the fact that Apple aren't clearly on this subject, we know how to get potentially an iPhone 7 more in the United Kingdom without these of these annoyances?

    If you're referring specifically for models with screen, those who are not necessarily indicative of what will be the markings on the new phones purchased it. These are demonstration devices that have been specifically configured as such and shipped to stores, very probably the United States. Keep an eye on someone buying a new phone in the store and take a look at the back. That will tell you what you'll see.

    If you are not satisfied, there is no point complaining here. We are not Apple. This is a user forum.

  • Can I change the date format day/United States (month day year) in the United Kingdom (date month year)?

    When I consult databases via Firefox, the format of date/day is set at: day, month, year (AMERICAN style), while I need, day, month, year, I work in the United Kingdom and the 'bad' format is VERY confusing and could lead to errors and mistakes. IE has that format, but I don't want to return to using that.

    You use the English (United States) version of Firefox ESR 24.3.0. You can download the English version of (British) below:

    1. under Options - content - language, make sure that English/United Kingdom [en-us] is located at the top of the list.

    2. in the Windows Control Panel category, region and language, make sure that the short Date is set at your convenience.

    You can check the date and time at the library of Firefox, bookmarks category format. Press Ctrl + Shift + B to open it, and then note the dates in the added to the right column.

  • Card TV Tuner that works in the United Kingdom and Switzerland

    Looking to buy a laptop computer running windows MCE. However, I need the TV Tuner card to be able to receive analog Switzerland and UK analogue or Digital TV signals. Integrated standard digital/analog hybrid TV tuner DVD-T sounds like it fits the Bill, but need to check if it works OK in Switzerland because they use the PAL B/G instead of PAL format I format used in the United Kingdom. Can anyone help?

    Hello Andy

    The fact is that the TV tuner is associated countries and if you buy laptop with integrated (for example Qosmio) TV tuner, you'll probably be able to use it only in the country where the laptop is purchased. Perhaps the external TV tuners from different manufacturers are more flexible and can be used in different countries.

    In my opinion you should speak with your local dealer. They have the best presentation of the product and you can get more accurate information. I also know that you can install WMCE on each item you purchase. I recommend for example P100. Large unit with fantastic 17.0 "TruBrite (1440 x 900) discovers Wide 16:10 color TFT display. I'm not 100% sure but I think that the Satellite P100-367 comes with WMCE.
