    You can set limits using certain providers, but these are more to protect the network.

    Do not rely on any limit as a form of expenditure control. They will not automatically prevent further calls when hit.

    The best way forward would probably be a U-Fix tariff or similar as already suggested.

    u fix is a rip off though...........
    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... You will be leaving the UK aswell as Europe ;)
  • Thank you for your replies, everyone.

    There doesn't seem to be an easy answer. Its either U-fix (which isn't that good a deal IMO), trust my daughter, or stay on pay monthly.

    I wanted to be sure I had explored all the options, and your comments threw up a few more things to consider.

    Clearly a network isn't going to encourage anyone to spend a minimum amount per month, it isn't in their interest! But, like so many parents responsible for their child's bill, I think it would be an attractive proposition if they could provide a tarriff over which the parent could have more control.

    Thanks again.
