This effectively gives you a UK number to receive calls foc for your contacts to use, as well as an ability to make free calls to the UK foc - particularly valuable to mobile numbers which would otherwise be very expensive.
This was actually my plan; I'll be spending about half of each month in the UK and had heard good things about Three. Is there any difference between a recurring monthly contract and going the top-up route? I'm not 100% clear based on the site info.

Perfect; that's the model I have and the carrier I intend on using. You are a godsend.

Unrelated: sucks about the Isles moving to Brooklyn next season, especially with that godawful seating setup on the one end. I hope they win the cup this year, go out of Nassau with a bang
