corinne14470 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I need to ring lots of places before a potentail move and wondered if anyone had a good SIM method or otehr. I am with THREE and they have a decent method but I have to remove the no extra spending cap which is deadly with the amount of data I use!! Any suggestions please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berto Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 We usually just use our landline and we spent 3 hours on the phone and it cost £20 that was before we changed to a better tariff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Are you in the UK? BT landline, overseas tariff we can call Aus for about 2p per minute to other landlines. We've used it for ages and it's very cheap. I doubt you'll get a good deal from a mobile tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jilla411 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 We were with talk talk and for an extra 2.00 quid a month could call Australian landlines for free and mobiles for half price ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any suggestions please get an O2 country simcard, top up £10 a month and you will get 100 free international minutes before you start using you £10 credit, top up £15 and get 150 free mins. Vodafone also so a sim card that offers a similar service Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goochie Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Skype works fine if you've over 1mb broadband and is about 2p/minute to oz! I agree with Skype. There is a good Android phone ap which lets you use a phone handset to make the calls rather than a PC. Just connect to your broadband router's wi-fi - I presume there is an iPhone ap too. Or just use a PC of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skype to Skype freee of course but I buy £10 credit and it lasts a long time and can be used to call virtually anyhwere in the world, landline or mobile.

boganbear Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 My dad is with talktalk and gets free international phone calls included. You can get a phone card from most corner shops which offer really cheap phone calls. I used one all the time in England and have one here too.
