I know this will sound mad...Im on O2 the £10 deal for 300 txts a month. The thing is i very rarely make a fonecall so all the £10's are gathering as credit on my fone. I top up my voip from my mobile credit, but anyone know of any other ways to spend the credit on purchases? I know reporo sells CD's etc but i cant download this onto my phone.

I know I could just not top up for a couple of months and Use the credit that way on texts but that seems like a waste to me.

Id be interested to see what anyone comes up with!!! (not sure if this is in the right place - mods feel free to move if its not)

  • If it was me though I would not top-up for a few months and save that £10 a month.

    Or maybe use it to enter competitions? Must be some more paid services available by text???
    2p off is still 2p off!
