    Rest of the world
    Calling to UK 170p p/min
    Calling within Zone (ie. Mexico) 199p p/min
    Calling out of zone (Not uk or mx) 199p p/min
    Recieving a call 141p p/min
    Sending a text 40p
    Sending an MMS 25p
    Data £6 per mb

    Just noticed i could get 10mb of Data for £20... but i used 2174mb last month, so i don't think that will get me very far!

    if you have aim/aol..... type in + then the phone number. I do this all the time to text cell phones and all cell phones, even cheap virgin mobile phones can text back to it.

    example IM (+2122222222) no dashes.. just the + sign, area code, and number

    Yeah, £20 for 10mb is like $0.32/kb. That's pretty expensive.

    He is not going to have data service hence no internet and no AIM.

    It's now set up so that if anyone sends me a facebook message to my message inbox it comes through to my phone as text. I might be able to send a message back through this, or text straight to your phone.
