Your son is in Scotland....easy cheap solutions
1. Go into A T mobile UK store and get a T Mobile UK sim card (very cheap, they post them for free I think and charge a couple of quid in the stores). Then have him check

I do believe that T Mobile UK rates to other UK mobiles are among the cheapest within the UK.
or
2. Have him check out Orange Call Abroad. Sim card is free, I think but he'll have to check that Australia is on the list of places he can call very very cheaply. Also I am told Orange coverage is better than T Mobile UK.
or
3. Have him go into a Carphone Warehouse and check out Mobile World. Again the sim card is free and he need only pay for minutes. However, while calling while in the UK is cheap, I don't think Mobile World allows international roaming yet or will in the foreseeable future.
Both T Mobile UK and Orange subscribe to the eu tariffs so calls within Europe will be relatively cheap too.
