    you used to only be able to access bargain pages online by paying £1.50 via SMS for 2/3 days access. its all free now. there must be something out there... pay for MP3s etc. If you have more than £5 (£7 to be on the safe side) you can topup https://www.voipcheap.co.uk (use it to make international calls) by sending a SMS. Too bad I just got over £4

    Ring a sex line. Your credit will last about 30 seconds... or so I'm led to believe.

    I don't think that's the *best way* to use up credit. :)

    just came across www.beemme.co.uk - never tried this

    EDIT: its a bit like online banking with SMS - but you can't use your mobile credit to credit your beemme account

    This is what I used my credit on: http://www.text-n-talk.com
    Its like moving my PAYG credit to this one where I could use any other phones to make a call. You can topup from £1.50 - brilliant!!
  • There are some charitys that you can donate through text. I used some credit up donating for sport relief although there are other charities that use this service.

    If you open an account with Fishtext you'll be able to send text from your computer via their website for 2p each.

    You can top up your Firshtext account using a mobile phone to credit Fishtext with £5 so that's a good way of using up your prepay credit now in a way that means you'll be able to make us of the credit on Fishtext into the future.
  • Ring people? Just an idea, like. ;)
