About £ 20 was what I paid, Ded. It was useful while it worked - Smart-Smart texts were each P 1 to and from the Philippines, and " non-Smart " texts P 2.5 each. At least I was able to retrieve the loaded Sim card, which I can use to send " roaming " texts from my mobile phone for P 20 each ( Europe as well as UK ). I understand they're P 1 each to send from the Philippines ( Smart network ).
No-one should now buy these " Plug 'n Talk " devices as they no longer work .
Thanks for your post gWaPito
For me, while in UK, the 100 " free " texts / month on the Vodafone contract is enough, but it's helpful to get members' advice here .
