Call Charges:
Your phone comes preloaded with €5 credit. This will give you up to 20 minutes talktime to Irish landlines or 30 minutes to most international landlines and US and Canadian cell phones.
If you find you run out of credit during your trip, you can purchase additional call credit at any gas station, shop or post office. You may also be able to add call credit using your master card or visa card. The call charges are outlined in the table below. Please note, we cannot refund any unused call credit.
The rates in the table below are in Euro and are correct at June 2010. The rates show the price of a one minute call, however all calls are charged on a per second basis. So a 30 second call to an Irish landline will cost only 12.5 cent.
