How to NOT pay for missed calls on your mobile phone

Here it is in Spanish

SPAIN Yes, if you make a call and there's no answer (person or voice mail) you are still charged for the call.  That's what Call Divert means. If your Spanish phone tells you Call Divert Active, you are paying the connection charge, even if you don't actually connect. Just another revenue stream for all the operators. But you can put a stop to it by dialling ##002# and pressing CALL. You will be told to 'please wait'. Bob's yer bleedin' uncle! Just in case, check it by calling someone: it should read Call Divert Inactive before it says Dialling. We just did it and it works. COMING SOON: SUBSCRIPTION INFORMATION.

Spain authorises underwater cable to unite three continents

(Agencies) The Spanish Ministry for Environment has accepted as viable the underwater fibre optic cable project that is to unite Europe, Africa and Asia, running from the UK to India along 15,000 kilometres (first reported here). Named the Europe India Gateway (segment 2), the project will not have to go through environmental impact reports at least in its trajectory through Spanish waters, according to the ministry, as "it will not produce significant environmental impact with its corrective measures." Nevertheless, the promoting company, Verizon, will have to obtain all the necessary licenses and permits as established by law.
