Tesco Mobile - 3.33p a minute ?

allthatmularky

Looking for a cheap PAYG for my old folks.

One idea was to buy two standard Tesco SIMS for a fiver each - they come with ten quid credit each. Then use the three favourite numbers for 10p a call - and transfer two numbers from a couple of free SIMS for a further £5 credit on each SIM.

Then use the Pingapound facility to transfer the credit from one SIM to the one in use. So, they would pay £10 and end up with £30 credit - effectively if all calls were made to the three favourite numbers (one could be 18185.co.uk) they would only be paying 3.33p a minute.

If the credit ran out - they could again get fifteen pounds for a fiver and ping it to the number in use - by buying a new SIM for a fiver with ten quid credit.

It would probably take them a few years to use the £30 credit :rotfl:

Ping me a pound is what Tesco Mobile has, so if 2 people have phones on Tesco Mobile and they can set up that either phone can request a pound credit from the other phone if the other phone has enough credit.
