Pay a Charity instead of a network for your PAYG phone usage :)

Don't know if it's been mentioned before, can't find any real reference. For me it's a handy way of getting rid of unwanted credit and helping a good cause. Or if you're careful, you can pay a charity for your phone usage instead of a network. I currently top up with €30 a month on VF, and get pretty much all of my usage…

I do the same with my 3 PAYG credit at the start of each month. A couple of extra codes if people are interested:

Air - €2 to Asthma Ireland
Childline - €4 to Childline
Home - €4 to Focus Ireland
We care - €4 to Jack & Jill Foundation

Yup all them CEO's need more money to feed their pensions and dinners out, and to Travel random places to promote the charity.

I have €137 credit with Three.. no idea what to do with it.

There's a big hole in the market for a business to take payment via phone credit for something people actually bloody want.

If you sold something as stupid as socks and took mobile payment I'd say you'd be a millionaire by Christmas, such is the amount of people with excess credit.

It's an untapped gold mine for sure.

I prefer to just buy random stuff on the play store with the credit remaining.
