    I ordered a free 3 sim added the £10 feel at home bundle, worked great with no issues and nothing else to pay
    So that would give you 333 mins of calls to UK numbers (at 3p per minute)?

    Would the 3 sim also give you free access to 080 numbers (as it would calling from the UK) ?

    From memory you get 1gb data, 100 minutes and maybe 500 texts for your £10 add on, valid for 30 days

    Other add ons are available


    I didn't use it to phone the UK I got 2 add ons on 2 sims and used it to keep in touch if we were separated from our son while in the usa

    You have to buy an Add-On to use Feel at Home on PAYG - you can't just pay the standard rate.
    Let's settle this like gentlemen: armed with heavy sticks
    On a rotating plate, with spikes like Flash Gordon

    It may not be as cheap as some of the methods above, but just to confirm current Skype prices (using pay as you go on Skype), it would cost 7.6p per minute to call a UK mobile using Skype, plus a 5.6p per call connection fee.
