I don't see Boku in the payment methods there now

Of course you don't, it was removed?

Did you even read my posts? Three obviously stopped supporting it. Can still be used in the Uk as I've tried it with a VPN. Don't think thats with Boku though if I remember correctly.

You could buy PUBG directly too with credit, that's gone as well.

It was still listed on the Three site until recently, which is why I contacted their Twitter help account and why they're currently following up with Boku for me.

How do you get an increase in the maximum spend (if you can ) have a subscription that I might try but only does a year at a time, so pay by carrier goes red and says need to contact carrier

I think it's E30 per month with VF, and I don't think you can go over that, so am guessing you're with VF?

I spent about E40 on a VPN recently with 3.

Can you use built up phone credit against your mobile bills if you switch to bill pay? Thought I read something about that here before

You lose all the credit if you switch to bill pay.

Hadn't heard of boku before but looking at a few videos online it seems i can pay for psn plus subscriptions. Has anyone had any luck doing so on Vodafone? That would be a nice extra if I could use it every so often.

What website can you purchase it from?

Don't think you're using up to date information. Hmvgamecredit was a good one but they're gone what must be a year now?

I was referring to this video but it turns out it's UK only

I was starting my free trial of YouTube Premium in the Android app and despite my 3 credit being set up as a payment method it prompted me for card details. I assume I'm not missing something and Google don't let you pay for one of their own services with credit?

You can. I pay my YouTube premium with three credit.

For the day that's in it, text CANCER to 50300 to donate €4 of which €3.60 goes to the Irish cancer society.

Is it easy to set up? I'm assuming it has been mentioned before but not sure how far back I would have to go

Uneducated post. ICS is one of the most transparent of all Irish charities.

It's phone credit, great cause to support much better than leaving it for free to take.

In fairness, he's not far wrong. It's unrestricted income for them. They can use it how they want and it will inevitably be used for salaries.

The only way I'd donate it that way would be if it was restricted to a certain project or research. They would then have to use it solely on that and nothing else

Give over. Working off of the same ratio as can be figured out in their accounts publicly available here
https://search.benefacts.ie/org/ed4d2d2b-9a89-493f-854d-79dc9b253d40/irish-cancer-society


26.9 Million total income, working on the assumption that the CEO is the highest paid employee listed under the 130k - 140k.
(135000/26900000)*(100/1) gives you 0.5% of all income on the CEOs salary.
Of the 3.60 that the service provider passes on, 0.5% = €0.018. Not even a two-penny sweet.

A third of their budget went paying 142 people (€7 million), that's not the nurses who did the actual work either.

Very good to themselves, CEO pay was cut as it was (is) a joke.

And you just KNOW if you go through the expenditure you'll find lots of other very nice perks.

The stench off these charities will be here for a long, long time.

This isn't a thread for bashing charities. It's a great way of spending unwanted credit for a very worthy cause.

Someone said €160 and they'd take abit, I'm over that and it's still going.

Maybe it's in the T&Cs, not gonna waste time looking for it anyway.

I remember contacting support for my credit going missing and was told anything older than 6 months is lost.

If you are on Vodafone you can send credit to other people on Vodafone. Better than letting it expire.
