Not me, I don't. I was daft enough to buy one of the countless cards, with various brand names, issued by Lycatel. Turns out (you'll have to search the website, and pretty hard, to find out) to have umpteen add-on charges on top of the advertised come-on of cheapish cost-per-minute. Worst of the lot is the 20 pence a day "maintenance charge"; result, a five-quid card will be dead within less than a month of your first use, even if you never touch it again. Can anyone recommend a serious phonecard that has cheap cost-per-minute and no such add-ons?

Later: surely some kind person must know? Help needed, please
