some questions for the international sim

Anonymous
Not applicable

I have a few questions

And if  anyone knows anything that might help me, I would appreciate it.

 

I'm basically looking for the cheapest or best deal to call abroad. USA specifically.

 

Today my tarif switched to the o2 unlimited, which is basically the international sim. So if I troop up I can call for like 3p a man to the states..... 

But does it charge the person I am calling?

 

Also, is it worth getting that bolt on to get free minutes to 3 people abroad, plus, a number for them to call me at their local rates?

the bolt on claims to have like 3000 free mins. Which seems like a little 'to good to be true'?

Yep, the bolt on is a very good deal and worth getting if you call abroad lots.
If you call a USA number in the USA they will not get charged, they are only charged if they are roaming, ie on a non USA number.

Have you checked what options you have in My O2 or called customer service? 

By the way this thread is 4 years òld so it may be better to start a new one.

You have 14 days to change your mind and cancel if the tariff doesn't suit you.

Unlimited what do you need?

There is no unlimited data available at all on o2, nor on most of the other networks.
