    How do I contact "22524" please? is it part of a phone number?

    Also, I was :rotfl: at your sig, josey 1964. I just worked out what was wrong with it, and it's along the same lines as people not being allowed to say they come from Scunthorpe! :eek: :p :rotfl:

    Edit to add: Obviously you can on this forum :rolleyes:

    Yes Virgin mobile is mostly PAYG. Although they do now have a contract deal as well.

    Hi All,

    I guess this is an computer you are calling, rather than asking a real person to add the option on?

    Still, good stuff!

    Cheers

    Just rang and it's a recorded woman. Up to 1000 a month, free :D

    She just tells you the detals, you don't register or anything, as she says every Virgin mobile user gets them - PAYG, contract, whatever.

    Many thanks OP :D
