Due to many of the free international calls services having been withdrawn recently we are advising all of our customers other than Virgin, some Vodafone and landline callers to use the Text & Talk service.
Text & Talk is our revolutionary mobile service that allows you to call anywhere in the world from 1p/min.
Just add some Text & Talk credit to your mobile by texting the word MFC to 80556 or 84459(standard network rate). We'll then add £5 or £3 respectively worth of international call minutes directly to your mobile phone.
You can now call your overseas contacts at incredible low rates. Just dial one of our access numbers followed by the full destination number. You can use your credit directly from your mobile or from any other phone using a PIN number. It's so easy and our rates are unbeatable!
Auto top-up. The unique TEXT & TALK auto top-up feature means you are never caught short without enough credit mid-way through a call. When your credit is running low and about to finish you will hear a voice prompt confirming there will be an auto top-up, for £5 or £3 as per your first TEXT & TALK credit purchase.
In order to avoid being automatically topped up you have to end the call (there is a period of 30 seconds to end the call).If you do not disconnect, we will top you up and you can continue your call. Customers can also text STOP to 80556 or 84459 at anytime to unsubscribe from the auto topup option. If the customer is using a PAYGO mobile and there isn't enough credit left for the auto topup, the auto topup will obviously not take place.
