I got 2 of these a few days ago.
As well as free 50 txt and min you also get 500 free txt to use with other Talkmobile users so if you are a low user who mainly txts one person its worth getting more than one.
Needs a voda phone tho0 -
Its vodafone and you need to send in 30 days notice....Isn't the knowledge that comes from experience more valuable than the knowledge that doesn't?0

Calls to UK Mobiles are not treated as double !!!! Only some calls to Intl Mobiles are treated like that.
Intl Calls are deducted from your bundle in the following way:
Landlines – a 1 minute call to an international landline is deducted as a 1 minute UK call.
Mobiles – a 1 minute call to an international mobile is deducted as a 2 minute UK call.
There are some exceptions to this, e.g. calls to US landlines & mobiles are deducted at the same rate as calls made within the UK.0 -

I am on the 3 network and pay £15 a month for "unlimited" (3000 mins) free international calls to 23 countries. With the basic package I also get free MSN messenger which is also a great substitute to texting friends overseas.:T
I have this option running alongside a basic call plan costing me £15 a month. I can also on the handset use unlimited skype for an extra £5 a month. This option is also available on PAYG handsets but I am not sure of the minimum spend on credit each week.
The only inconvenience is adding a prefix 388 to the number before you dial - however this can be saved in your phone book if it is s friend or family. Last month, I made the equivalent of £250 of international calls to HK for £15

HOWEVER, does anyone know what network it depends on??
It is on vodafone!
But if you are Vodafone PAYG, you can make international calls for 5p/min..........which means for £6 you have 120min!! [but doesn't have text bundle] It really depends on what you want!0 -
what countries are the Voda payg 5p calls to ? do they include mobiles ? can you buy bundles of mins ?SO... now England its the Scots turn to say dont leave the UK, stay in Europe with us in the UK, dont let the tories fool you like they did us with empty lies...
