On 22 April 2009, UK operator 3 announced it was extending free access to Skype services to all its customers. From 1 May 2009, customers with a 3 Skype-enabled phone will be able to make unlimited Skype-to-Skype calls and instant messages. Such services will not incur data charges and prepaid users will not be required to make a minimum top-up. From an unspecified date this summer the offering will be rolled out to other mobile phones. Anyone with an unlocked compatible 3G handset will be able to buy a prepaid 3 SIM card for £1.99 and use unlimited Skype-to-Skype services for free.
