It should be a good guess, but none of this is clear. A while ago, I spent quite along time asking O2 and Orange CS about IoM rates, and the basic answer is ....... they don't know, or get it wrong; they have told people European rates, but I'm not aware of it ever happening


I think a good precaution would be JustVoip or DialNow callthrough - landline plus a few pence

Both IoM and Jersey numbers come from Virgin contract minutes (the only one with both), so I don't know if a switch to them and pre-paid with an add-on bundle ... ?

I got a prepaid phone from Virgin with 2 months of 100 minutes thrown in at the start, and those were including IoM/Jersey, so there's a very good chance ...

I could send a free Virgin SIM with £5 on it, but actually even a £20 Nokia 1112 comes with the 2 x 100 minutes ...
