What should I do with my extra 288 inclusive minutes about to expire on Orange?

I'm on Orange Dolphin 35 and have 600 inclusive anytime any network minutes each month, plus an hour of weekend minutes as a bundle which carried over from my last tariff.

Since getting Magic Number set up I rarely now go over my 600 inclusive, but this month still have 288 left which I'll loose sometime in the next day or so as they don't roll over. I'm really happy with this tariff for the money so don't want to change to another.

Can anyone suggest some way of using them though. I know I can't use 07744 on international calls anymore so that's not an option sadly.

Thanks ;)

    Yip, unfortunately it's in the terms and conditions as of 1st March from memory on all animal plans. If you took out your contract before that it wouldn't have been in your terms, I think the minutes will continue to rollover till you change or renew your contract.

    I missed this when reading them before I signed to another 18months. The other bit that's not very clear is you get unlimited texts but are charged 1p for a delivery report.

    Edit:

    1. These terms and conditions apply to new and existing customers connecting or upgrading to a Dolphin, Canary, Racoon or Panther “Animal Package” via Orange direct between 1 March 2007 and 31 July 2007.

    5. ...If you do not use your inclusive minute allocation for the month it will not rollover to the next month.

    Use your mobile instead of your landline when you are at home just to use up those free minutes.
