UK Landline 1p a min. UK Mobi 5p a minute. UK Texts. 4p a minute. Free Voice Mail. www.icardmobile.co.uk Note the rates only apply to 30/4/2011 at present. This looks good - but alas it does not provide GPRS data services, so no mobile internet. Great if you have a basic phone and just want to make calls. Also, no roaming! Plus they charge 10p a minute for 'freephone' numbers (0800/0808/0500). On Giffgaff they're free and on Tesco Lite they're only 8ppm. Giffgaff also charges less than Icard for non-geo calls (20ppm, as opposed to 25ppm on Icard). Conversely, Giffgaff charges a one-off fee of 8p per Voicemail call, whereas on Icard it's free... It's always swings and roundabouts with these 'cheapo' mobile providers. You really do have to compare the non-headline charges and decide which one best suits your needs. I tend to call Voicemail more than 08 numbers, and don't go abroad, so perhaps Icard would be better for me than Giffgaff.
