    You get a free dedicated 07822 3 noodle number just for yourself by texting the word NOODLE TALK24/7 to 81025. (standard rate text - make sure you leave a space between the words noodle & talk24/7) HAVE TO BE IN CAPITALS

    The SMS will cost you a standard rate text which is 10 to 12 pence. If you have bundled SMS text messages then it may be free. THERE ARE NO HIDDEN COSTS!

    Noodle will text you back your new noodle 07822 3 number which you use before you dial your international number.

    You also get payed 2 pence per minute for calling this number, and also this number can be used as your own number, so if someone calls you then you will get a ring on your phone, and earn money. You will also get another 0208 number which can be used when your credit has built up!

    Ive been using this service for a month now, and thought il check my bill, there are no charges and works perfectly. (If you have bought your contract from Carphone/onestop/e2save then it will work!

    (0845/0800 can also be called for free)

    Why does this look like spam to me? Maybe I'm just too suspicious...

    This is not spam, just a way to save money.

    I think last post has lost their noodle, pay over the odds then and dont read the thread as you are using your noodle.

    ok, righto - so you use your 'free' bundled minutes on your mobile to get 'free' international calls. On the face of it that's a good deal.

    Your bundled 'free' minutes on a contract though, are, really 15p + per minute (£35 / 200 = 17.5p).

    An international call on a landline will cost 5p or thereabouts on average to most places these days.

    OK - this route may be cheeper than dialing direct. (if you can remember or bother to dial a 30 digit number) but I'm afraid the really smart people will use their NOODLE and pick up a landline.

    To advertise this service as providing 'Free international calls' is misleading verging on fraudulent IMHO.

    Yes - not a lot of use anywhere else I'm afraid. I'm sure there will be outfits like this everywhere though. It's nothing exciting, but does bring home just how expensive mobile carriers are.
