Hi, I'm in Northern Ireland and have an iPhone 4 on Orange. I have a friend in Republic of Ireland and in order to txt, as we do very frequently, it is costing 22.5p per txt. This runs up about £100 per month as Orange don't do any discounted txt rate to ROI. I use Skype to call her, which is cheap at 12.5p per minute, to her mobile as she doesn't have a landline. I know that Skype to Skype is free but without a landline she only has mobile broadband that comes as part of her mobile package with vodafone ie.
3 main questions -
Will it use a lot of her mobile data allowance if we do Skype to Skype?
Does anyone know any cheaper ways to call ROI from UK? (To save any confusion to some, Northern Ireland IS part of the UK despite what some people on the mainland may think)
Is there anyway cheaper to txt to ROI from UK and, ideally, from ROI to UK?
Thanks for any info
