Donating unwanted phone credit to charity

Herongull

Sometimes you have to buy a £10 PAYG topup voucher when you buy a PAYG phone.

Also you pay £15 to get an Ovivo sim which gives you £15 credit which expires after a year if you don't use it.

Not sure what to do with this credit which otherwise might be wasted/expire unused?

Why not text it to your favourite charity as a donation? You can also add 25% extra as giftaid at no extra cost if you are a taxpayer.

Do you have details for people to see ?

Actually with info on how to giftaid via text donations this might well be worth Sticky status

Sounds like a good idea, as long as the number is not one you're going to be using long term, as these charity texting things are notorious for pestering you for more money once you've donated.
