If you are one of the many Brits who will grace airports all over the country on your way out to an exotic land this summer, no doubt you will be excited to arrive and experience the adventure and beauty of your chosen destination. Of course, you won’t forget about your life back at home, and keeping in touch with friends and family is essential - even if it is just to make them jealous.
Now Global Sim, a new way to make cheap international phone calls, is offering holidaymakers the chance to stay in touch with their loved ones without spending all of their holiday money.
It’s easy to forget about your phone contract when planning for your holiday, and many tourists fail to realise the heavy charges that normal phone networks will impose upon your account as soon as you go abroad. Known as a “roaming charge”, your usual UK phone network applies extra fees to your account when you make and receive phonecalls, and even when you wish to pick up voicemail. The costs can be as high as £1.90 per minute, meaning that any calls made will make a dent in your wallet.
Meena Ganesh, a recent visitor to Italy, said, “I had forgotten to check my network’s international call charges before I left the UK but I wanted to keep in touch with my family, so I only made a handful of calls lasting only a few minutes each. My phone bill was over £30 in addition to my monthly line rental! Now when I go abroad, I rely on Global Sim to keep me in touch and in pocket.”
As Global Sim uses a UK phone number, you no longer need to remember longwinded international dialling codes – your friends and relatives back home call the same number to reach you, no matter where in the world you may be. And what’s more, in over 50 countries, it’s absolutely free to receive phone calls. So when you take a trip to a variety of places including Australia, Spain or Greece you can be sure to rest and play without the worry of huge phone bills.
Easy to use, the Global Sim is compatible with any unlocked mobile phone. Once you’ve purchased a Global Sim card, you can top up anywhere in the world at any time, by visiting the Global Sim website.
