    Just for info., my husband's £10 credit for his bedside 'phone lasted for two weeks for limitless calls and still had not run out when he left hospital! I think he got a little confused by what he had been told -the TV credit was separate (which he hardly used). All in all, not a bad deal.
    Wins since 2009 = £17,600

    MANY THANKS TO ALL OPS
