in Freebies gone but not forgotten
and if you've got the FREE sim with some credit on it then why not text DONATE to 83321...

£1.50 will be taken from your credit and the full amount will be donated to the Tsunami Earthquake Appeal...

or you could do it six times and donate £9

    Brilliant idea!!! I have donated £10 (the whole sim), and it hasnt cost me a penny. I will be showing my children your post and will encourage them to do the same.

    Hi Foxy ;)

    I gave my sim card to my husband (hope I remembered to thank you btw :o ), and as I had no credit in my own phone (waiting for the new one to charge up etc), I asked him to use the money this way too.

    Trouble is, he got as far as 83 and then the msg 'sent' ??? Has anyone else encountered this?

    Good idea btw. After all, they cost nothing did they?

    ;)

    My first text was a bit of a rogue text. It too sent a bit prematurely as I hadnt hit send. However, I had completed the number but I didnt have a comformation text. All the other times I had a conformation text saying my money had been donated.

    I'm not sure tbh but I doubt it. I'll ask the silly old trout when he comes home though ;D

    Thanks. I only asked in case it had happened to anyone else ;)
