Tony Smith of The Register reports:

T-Mobile will next week slash the cost of making calls to overseas numbers - if you're one of its pay-as-you-go customers.

The provider will charge between 5p and 20p per minute to make a call to another mobile, and 5-10p to call a landline. Texts costs 15p.

The calls and texts must me made to any of 50 countries, and you have to opt in to the deal, which T-Mobile calls "International Pass", by texting INT to 441. That text is free. If you have already signed up, the new rates will be applied automatically, the carrier said.

International Pass will become available on Monday, 8 March.

The full list of countries and rates can be found in the PDF here.

Interesting move by T-Mobile - I wonder if Orange will follow suite.

I believe that T-Mobile is having a real issue with retaining customers at the moment and getting new customers and there market share is dropping a like a stone. No official figures at the moment but there will be soon enough.

Which I find very strange as their Flext offers were unbeatable for years which is why I stuck with them. Although I am due an upgrade come July and it depends how Orange handle the merge/takeover of Tmobile depends if I stay with them or not. If Orange scrap Tmobiles plans and sort of moulds their own to Tmobile customers I will be off like a shot.
i just joined t mobile recently as the offers they were doing were superb no issues with service yet.

What's even better is their customer support, is actually good customer support, never had a single issue with them at all in the 5 years have been with them :D
I too was thinking of switching to them for their good deals, but hear their coverage is the weakest and 3G connection is pretty slow and poor. O2 Have taken a large share from the Iphone sales and orange from their new prices and 3G speeds
