Evening all,

Any recommendations as to the best mobile phone plan for UK/overseas ( Spain/Gibraltar) calls especially txts.


What does the jury think ( not the one from Southwark).


As always many thanks for all replies.

be careful sending hyperlinks as they ( on 3) show up as photos on the bill

Depends whether you are calling those places from the UK or the UK from those places.

E-mail & skype?

Buy a Vodafone Spain SIM, and use a low-cost prefix to dial it.

O2 had a good deal until recently where you could call from abroad for a flat 50p then use your UK bundled minutes but they seem to have stopped it. Too good a deal I guess.

I'll be interested in any good tips.

When I landed in Cyprus two weeks ago, that deal still came up on my phone when I got the welcome text message. I hope its still working as I am still here and have been using it!

Look up Gym Sim on google. We are live aboards and use Gym Sym all over which ever country we are in. It is probably the cheapest sim card and call rate around. We use pay as you go and top up via credit card on the mobile.

I would use a local PAYG sim in the phone and then use skype
