    Hi,

    my phone got drenched at oxegen last weekend and I have to wait till i get paid next week before i can buy a new one. But I have about €10 credit on it at the moment. Does any one know of a way I can use that credit to be able to send texts online (I know about web texts, I need to send an international text)

    I'm with meteor BTW

    Thanks,
    Dan

    Is the sim damaged?

    Can you not go into Meteor shop and they will give you a new sim? All your numbers will be gone but you will still have the credit?

    Take the battery out and leave it in the hot press for about a week, it might come back to life again.

    I was gonna buy a new one anyway, have my eye on one of those HTC beauties. But thats not really what I was asking.

    Does anyone know a way I can send International Webtexts, using the credit on my phone. I have never heard of a way to do this and was just wondering if it's possible

    Chargeable call or send a text from the phone every 6 months is correct for o2

    o2 will send you a new sim free of charge: http://sim1.o2online-media.ie/

    I got one of the free O2 sim cards (with 50p credit on it) almost 2 years ago - ordered it online. Still have 10c left from that original 50c and I'm still good to go on the free webtexts :D. I keep it in an old unlocked phone so I can get replies.
    At the time I got it, Vodafone didn't have the international webtexts and I was keeping in touch with a relative in Australia. Best ever value for money I didn't spend.
