    Does anybody know if there's a way to subsequently remove a number from your account? Mine now has so many numbers it's getting a bit unwieldy!

    Thanks

    dial 789 and speak to customer service (will cost you 10p).
    Ask them to unregister it because you want to give the SIMs to other friends.
    You can re-register the following day. (not sure if you can get another £2 though...haven't tried)

    Thanks (and I wasn't thinking of this as a ploy to get another £2!). Given that you can add a number online, I was hoping that there might be a similar mechanism for removing it.

    To my knowledge, there aren't any free ones around at the moment.

    To save yourself 10p, e-mail them. They are excellent in responding to their e-mails

    After seeing this thread on Wednesday evening, I remembered I had a free simcard somewhere, so I put it in my old PAYG phone and registered it...the £2 extra credit was there by the next morning. That's now my car emergency phone ;).

    Emailing the CS is brilliant as they do reply quickly (British Gas could take some lessons there! :rolleyes: ). I emailed them with a query about my new PAYG phone at the same time as registering the aforementioned simcard, and they actually phoned my landline to talk me through my problem the next day.
    They have always been very good if I've needed help :T :D.
