O2 PAYG 10p per minute anytime
I have one of these PAYG O2 Sims with 300 free texts, you can change it as follows :
If you would prefer your allowance to provide you with free calls as well as messages, you can select the Online Pay as you Go ‘Talkalot with Calls and Messages’ option. For a minimum monthly top up of only £10, this entitles you to the following free allowance each month:
Up to 100 anyone, anytime minutes or 100 text messages or 33 media messages or a combination of all three7
1MB O2 Active Browsing
Simply call 2425 from your O2 Pay as you Go mobile and follow the options to select Calls and Messages, or text ONCALLSMSG to short code 21300.
useful for those that only text occasionaly

Yes, other people have said that it does seem to work the way it says; 100 free minutes and then you start using the £10 credit. It's surprising; I've sent a couple of SIMs abroad to people who will be visiting, so I'd be interested in hearing how it goes.0

This has been posted several times already on threads on this site. The 10p a minute is not strictly true - its dependent on a £10 top up each month. However, if you do use the £10 the calls xnet anytime could effectively be 8p a minute - since 100 mins plus the original £10 / 40p a minute - giving 125mins.
However, both Easymobile and Fresh PAYG substantially undercut these prices - at least until 11th June.0 -
If the calls are mainly to landlines, this will be down around 5 to 7p per minute always0

Hi
When I posted originally I looked at the next 2 or 3 pages and found no reference to this, I suppose its one of the problems in the popularity of the board , may be worth splitting mobile phone section into contract and payg subsections ?0 -
There are plenty of other repetitions; some questions are about switching payg to contract and back again, and some are relevant to both like discussion of favourite phones, so it would probably add complication rather than reduce it.
