0.057p surely is just over 5p. You can't just taken out a few noughts, it changes the figure completely.

0.057p is less than half a pence. £0.057 is just over 5p.

My brother in law is the manager for an Orange shop... so I may even avoid the magazine purchase.

I think this thread should have been left in grabbit.. the magazine is a periodical after all, so wont be around for ever.
And it received 2 thanks in 1 minute.. more than a lot of the the threads in there get all week

There is absolutely no need to buy a mag to get this offer of 3000 offpeak and weekend texts.

You can buy the sim off their website for a £1 including p&p.They actually give you the £1 back in credit.
See http://shop.orange.co.uk/shop/sim_connection_pack

Once you have got the sim from them you can register for the offer and another free text offer see this thread.Cheaper then buying the mag eh!!!

As you get the £1 back for the sim in credit i make that 3000 texts for Zilch.

Just looked at the website and it looks like it's only valid if you top up £15 a month or more - is this right?

It's like a maths lesson in here

I received a sim with 3,000 texts for free (posted on Freebies last week I think) and £1 credit, but as I gave it away, any ideas if the person I gave it to will receive the £1?

She reckoned I'd saved her £300 because she was paying 10p per text msg

As far as I can gather from the freebies I got, the first month of 3,000 texts is free and then if you top up with £15 a month thereafter you then get a further 3,000.

If the other person registered it she will get a £1 credit.In theory if you she would normally have made 3000 evening and weekend text messages in a month ,thats approx 100 a day? they would have cost her £300 quid on the 10p tariff.The operative word being if!!!

As Edinburgh Lass points out you dont have to put the £15 in to get the first 3000 texts.You only need to put in £15 a month to keep on getting them.

By the way the offer does not just apply to new users,existing users can apply also .

Thanks for that pricefighter. It's all gobbledegook to me but I'll let her know. She's only 17 and some 17 yr olds seem to text a lot, but 100 a day's beyond even her capabilities/needs I think

I'll check that she's registered as well. And what Edingburgh Lass posted. Thanks again

It says on the orange site you have to credit the account with £15 THEN you get the 300 evening and weekend texts.
