How else can I use up mobile phone credit?
I got my wife an iphone on Ebay. It cost 400 new. I unlocked and jailbroke it. She now uses it with her T mobile sim.
Her sim paygo allows her free unlimited internet and unlimited texts as long as you put £10 per month into it (for life).
I think it's quite a good deal.
Problem is: we're quite frugal and rarely use it for calls and nowhere near use up the £10 per month. Her thumb is red hot from texting like crazy!
So how do we best use the £10 per month?
Can we share it with another sim card?
Can we buy things using credit?
Any ideas?

Why not use it for calls that would otherwise cost you money - Directory Enquiries, any 0844/0845 numbers that cost or even 0900 numbers if you ever call them.
Also calls abroad.0 -
Only top up every other month and use some up that way.
There aren't many things you can use it on...0 -
LOL ... you have married the only woman who does not like talking on the phone.
