HI,
i am working in holand, my wife is is uk. we have both 3g contract phones ( 2000) mins per month allowance. 3mobile will not speak to me ( as my name is not on contract , my wife does not speak english so good )

what is the cheapest way i can call her every day ? bearing in mind she cannot use computer or skype etc, we have 3mobile contracts , so how much would it be if i were to ring her from holland for , say 1 minute per day ? or would it be cheaper for her to ring me to holland , from uk ?

advise please ;-) thanks

I can't help you with 3g, we are on 02 contracts, but my OH is in Europe regularly and we find texts much cheaper than speaking. Phone calls across country boundaries can be really expensive. We pay to receive calls in Europe as well as making the call, so it's just too expensive.
I always text when I'm abroad, o2 are OK, but I'm not sure that 3 network allow it.
ps in my experience, inclusive minutes and text, don't get used up when using international calls/texts
You're right bednobs - our inclusive calls and texts are UK only.
glad you understood what i meant - i read it back and it's appallingly put!
you can switch over to talk talk. if you pay extra £3 per month you can get inernational booster, to call landlines, and can talk up to an hour for free. or try this number to call Holland for cheaper, 08444 625 625. it costs 2 p/minute plus network charges, its definately much cheaper than BT.
im not sure wheather its for landline or mobiles, try it and might give you another number to ring mobile number.bear in mind after you dial the phone number you press # button and the call gets connected.
i forgot to say that using that 0844 number she can phone you if it works out cheaper that way.
LOL Looks like someone has two identities on here and nearly blew it! Well covered! lol
Calls made (from the UK) to a mobile phone which is on a contract (or, indeed, on PAYG) with a UK company are always charged at the same rate, irrespective of where that phone is. So, to call you, your wife will pay the normal UK rates (or use up her inclusive minutes) just as if you were in the UK. However you'll be charged 11.5p per minute for receiving the call.

If you phone your wife, you'll be charged 36.6p per minute but she won't pay to receive the call.
