    Premium Voice is offered for 99p/month as a 50% discount on the 'normal' price. The offer appears when logged in.

    AIUI (but I could be wrong), this enables calls to be made on the Three network when necessary.

    Bargain?

    It needs to be a smart phone as you're calling over data.

    I've found the call quality poor and given up on it again, didn't bother with a second free SIM yesterday.

    So now we have two 07400 numbers, one for each of us.
    We have the numbers but no SIMs!

    It's now 12 days later and we still can't try the service. :(
  • I ordered a sim on the 28th November and the sim still hasn't been sent out. I think they must have a backlog with the free sim offer that was going at the time.

    Online order status now shows:
    This order is Failed
    with no explanation.

    :D

    Time to move on - but first, I'll protect my credit card details.
  • My order from the 28th has been shipped today. I already have a FreedomPop sim card but its a micro sim and i needed a nano sim. I was starting to think that i'd been rejected. Edit...i always use a prepaid card with limited funds in so they can't dip in and take auto-top-ups.

    Well, one of our two has been delivered and is now installed. :)

    I had an e-mail message about the other asking for my delivery address. They said it hadn't been captured, though the Check Availability sequence seemed to work. I've e-mailed my address.
