No, I do not, I just simply forgot to activate it as until recently I was
happily roaming with Virgin OVP. However, as one of the main reasons for
having a mobile with me abroad is for emergencies I am curious whether it
would have worked had I needed it and my credit on PAYG run out. It was
Gran
Canaria.

I think the question has been answered already - emergency calls are
free

I have never been billed for emergency calls I have made, either in
this country or roaming

My question was not really about the cost but whether such a call would be
connected (even when the roaming was not activated)
