Other uses for PAYG mobile credit?

Mr_Gordon_2

I have a strange problem, I have too much Orange pay as you go credit and don't know what to do with it.

I have an Orange contract (discontinued premier package) due for upgrade next month. About six months ago I started calling a relative who only has an Orange phone much more often and found myself faced with high bills due to the length of the calls and all my inclusive minutes being used.

I found out about Magic Number but on my current contract I was unable to use that offer without taking out another contract without upgrade of my phone at the time as I still had several months to run on the contract.

The best option I found was to get a pay as you go Orange phone and top up with £10 per month by direct debit, this gave me three hours a night after 7pm and weekends for 15p per hour to one number. This was perfect and saved me a fortune. I can now add a second Magic number but don't have anyone else I need to call that often.

Even with regular use of the Magic number calls my credit is sitting at £56, and is still topping up by £10 each month. If I cancel the top up I loose Magic Number for at least a month (which I may do in the end as my new contract will offer magic number)

What I'm wondering is what else can you use mobile credit for, besides ringtones, games etc. I doubt very much Orange would be willing to refund the unused credit.

The only bundles they offer is unlimited Orange World for a day, or a text bundle, both of which I have on my contract anyway.

I've seen some charities take donations by text, the Make Poverty History wristband could be bought by text for example.

Any ideas?
