Off to Nice on Wednesday for a week and will be making quite a few calls home for various reasons. Currently on an Orange contract phone.

Anything I can do to get cheaper calls home from France than the 70p/min Orange charge,

Cheers

www.orange.co.uk/away - a little bit cheaper

Have just signed up for the monthly frequent traveller (£2) service myself.

 

or why dont you get a 02 genie sim card they are pay and go so you know how much you've spent

 

Check out buying a local PAYGo card, that's what I do when in Oz.

Obviously that is cheaper for local calls in France, but you'd need to compare the prices to see if calls home are cheaper or not.

I save money doing it in Australia compared to a UK telco card.

 

dont forget you need to swap over to the 'other side' so use the left ear or vice-versa

 

Maybe worth looking at http://www.0044.co.uk/

I've no experience of this myself so can't recommend it, but have been wondering about getting one for Spain. The France one doesn't look to be as good value though.

Anyone any experience of one of these ??

 

Be careful was with orange when i went to cyprus last year, and in 2 weeks I racked up a bill of £184

 

I was in Cyprus for 6 months a couple of years ago,got my Orange phone unlocked and used a local Sim card, saved a fu**ing Fortune.

was something daft like 5p a Min.

You decided to join up yet,?????? lol
