Keep your chin up! i tried the planet site for international calls but its still charging me 30p a min to us instead of 1p a min like it said it would, so thats over a tenner wasted because i put a deposit down and stuff its more for him to ring me but i just wish it would work, they'll be loads of people using that site and getting benefit from it so annoying! feels like years away though.

Nemi, I call from the UK to the USA through the 3 network. They are notorious for being a bit crap, but they are the ONLY UK provider who offer international calling rates. I just purchased a pay-as-you-go sim card, which cost me £11.00, which included £10.00 credit on it - if you add the prefix 424 in front of a US number it only costs 3p minute. They also have a 1month sim card, which costs £15.00 and you can call the US unlimited. They both work and have saved us loads of money on calls. Have you also tried rebtel????

Hey, I know you're talking about speaking on the phone but have you tried VidMe? It's a site that allows you to upload videos privately. My boyfriend is in London and until I see him three weeks from now, we send each other videos back and forth. It's a great site because only he has access to what I send and that's all, unlike YouTube and Facebook. I highly recommend checking it out. Good luck.

Have you also tried rebtel???? i think i'd after open my phone so that would be like 10 pound :/ but the fifteen month sim card sounds good, do u top it up to more cred on or get another sim card, or does the sim card jus have unlimited for a month?

Nemi, it is about £10.00 to unlock your phone. Here is some three info: http://www.three.co.uk/Pay_As_You_Go/International_calling_rates I can't find info the monthly sim that gives you unlimited to USA, but if you go into your local branch they have them in there on display in the shop.

I remember waiting for my guy to get out of work, and I'd just be lazy until he came over lol. My favorite days were the ones when I got up off my tush and hopped on the metro to find things I hadn't seen before in Madrid. ...or went shopping! omg that was the best!
