Check my math on this...I'm thinking of the vodafone plan (and I'm referring here about calls to the USA and Canada where all calls are considered landlines. £10 top up for 60 minutes...sounds fantastic but that means £1 for 6 minutes or between 16p and 17p per minute. The vodafone international plan (as well as the T Mobile International plan) is 5p/minute to North America and nothing up front.......is my math correct and so at least if you're not calling mobile within Europe, you do better without the add on (or have I messed up my math)...Orange camel is 6p/minute to North America.
None of which compares to YCW which is 3p/minute to North America timed to the second BTW. |

I suppose another efficient way of doing so would be to call a a Betamax local access number (at normal UK landline rates). Betamax/Finarea/Dellmont effectively gives you the USA and Canada for free. If you are planning on making long calls to the USA this way, it would be worth adding Vodafone Stop the clock which gives you 1 hours calling to UK landlines but just charges you for 3mins. |

Orange was the only UK provider that would let me register my Canadian credit card, too, so it's easy to keep it alive. It doesn't hurt that I have an awesome, awesome phone number (0796 xyxyxxx)! Hardware: Too much but notably iPhone 5, iPad Mini Retina LTE, Moto G LTE (N.A. version), iPhone 4. All unlocked. |
