The radiotelephone comprises a microprocessor, a radio transceiver (32) and a first set of memory (34). A removable set of second memory locations (36) is (in the form of a magnetic card or a smart card). An audio section (38), display section (40) and keypad section (42) are provided in handset (10). The microprocessor receives inputs from the keypad and from the first and/or second sets of memory locations and controls the transceiver, display m the transfer device (44).
