Having had a few inquiries asking if I’ll carry certain adverts on this blog, I’ve always said no because the blog is about the content, the comments, etc. It would have to be a good product or service that was very helpful to me and readers to make me change my mind.
Well, I’ve found one.
Most of us use mobile phones but the cost of calls from mobiles is ridiculous in this country. Check the cost elsewhere and you will see the huge difference – cheaper than landline calls in some cases.
How would you like to get free calls? Free texts? All are now possible with the new mobile provider called giffgaff. How? Just change your sim card to a giffgaff one.
I can give you giffgaff sims free. Then register on the giffgaff website, add a little credit and off you go. Why? Let’s compare the latest Pay As You Go tariffs:
NETWORK Orange T-Mobile Vodafone O2 giffgaff
CALLS . . . . . . . . .20p 25p 20p 25p 8p
TEXTS . . . . . . . . .10p 10p 10p 10p 4p
That’s some saving. I know what you’re thinking. Pay As You Go is such a hassle. Having to always top up is a right faff. Er, no. With giffgaff, you can set it to top up automatically when your credit is down to £2. Handy, eh? It’s as handy as a monthly account – but without the massive bills.
giffgaff is a tiny company. O2 and Vodafone have thousands of employees. giffgaff has 15. Everything is done online so no waiting for incomprehensible operators in other countries to check your account. How is the giffgaff signal where you live? Well, if you can get O2 you can get giffgaff, because it is piggybacked onto the O2 network.
If you want, you can transfer your existing number to giffgaff in two working days. I’ll tell you how. There are lots of other offers for heavier users – like free internet on your mobile if you sign up for advance payments – which they call Goodybags. In fact, anyone can get free internet and 150 minutes of calls for just 10 quid a month.
And now the best bit. All calls and texts between giffgaff subscribers are completely free. Always. Up to an hour. Absolutely free every time. Think how much you could save if you, your family and friends were on giffgaff.
You can order sims at giffgaff.com. Or – and here’s the spiel – if you take a giffgaff sim from me, you will get £5 extra credit when you top up with £10 or more. I get a little credit too. I use it. My family and friends use it and we save loads.
Unless you are in a long contract with one of these awfully expensive providers, put your name and address in the form below or call me on 07922 609000 for a free sim. And the next time you phone me, the call will be free.
