Finanical Hardship

If you’re experiencing financial difficulty, our pre-paid plans put you in total control. There’s no lock in contract, no risk of overspending and you have the option to change your plan at any time to suit your financial situation. There are no penalties for changing plans but if you have an active plan and switch to another, the remaining credit will be forfeited and will not be refunded.

You may wish to consider a Pay As You Go plan which offers flexible, casual rates and you pay only for what you use. This is ideal if you need to simply maintain your service for emergencies or for when your situation improves.

As long as your service remains active, you can call these numbers even if you have no credit:
