Skype on Three mobile phone network
 
So they're advertising now that it will transform mobile phone calls forever! :roll:

So does anyone actually use it?

I've had it a year but hardly know anyone to call with it :smt102

So I thought I'd start the ball rolling with my id

Had Skype on my 3 mobile for nearly 18 months. Set up a user account when I got it and haven't used it since.

I use a proper VoIP service as do the rest of my extended family, my mother has an internet connection but no computer just to supply her VoIP so she can talk to my sister in Spain and brother in New Zealand for hours each day.

I have set her speed buttons on her phone to dial their IP addresses directly and bypass her service provider. apart from that she can then us the phone as a normal dial up/in

I loaded it, but what with 1100 free minutes each month, there has never been an incentive to try it out

I use it all the time, me being in Italy and the missus in the UK.

Also the 3 contracts apply out here so I have a UK contract but can use the free minutes, internet and skype over here.

There are about 6 or 7 countries you can use 3 in for no extra charge. We changed to 3 about 10 months ago onto a 6 month contract as a bit of a test but have now signed up for 18 months with an extra fiver for internet access and also cancelled the home landline and broadband.

Yup, we use it home to call the sister in law in Australia (to her landline), friends in Mauritius (sp?) use it and we chat away to some other friends on the Isle of Man.

Skype on Three has been available on some tariffs for ages but they have just now opened it up for all tariffs (ie the cheap **** ones).
