English UK in conjunction with GSM International has produced the English UK international phonecard which is intended to make life easier for language centres and students alike.
Supplied by GSM International, the phonecards have a face value of £5 and as well as helping students to keep in touch with their nearest and dearest abroad, they can help you to generate extra income for your centre.
Members can purchase the cards in packs of 10, with the minimum order standing at just 2 packs (ie 20 cards). These phonecards are provided by GSM International on a buy back basis*. They are sold to you at lower than face value, enabling you to generate a surplus on any cards you sell. The amount of profit you can make depends upon how many packs you purchase but it starts from a generous £1.50 per card:
|
No. of packs |
Face value of card |
Price you pay per card |
Revenue potential per card sold |
|
2 to 10 packs (i.e. 20 to 100 cards) |
£5.00 | £3.50 | £1.50 |
|
11 to 20 packs (i.e. 110 to 200 cards) |
£5.00 | £3.25 | £1.75 |
|
More than 20 packs (i.e. over 210 cards) |
£5.00 | £3.00 | £2.00 |
The cards represent a good-value communication option for international students as the call rates offered are some of the most competitive.
Marco Travaglia, Managing Director of GSM International, believes that the cards are particularly useful for students on short courses. "If they are only here for a short time, then there is no point in them getting a new SIM card for their mobiles. These cards mean you don’t need a mobile. They can be used from any UK landline phone."
On average most participating students use one phonecard per week. The cards can be used to call from UK landlines and UK mobiles using either an 0808 toll free number (ideal for calling from host families as they won’t incur any cost for the student making the call) or a range of local access and national access numbers
Unlike most cards available to purchase in the UK, the English UK phonecard can be used to call internationally from most countries to most countries by using a local access number. This means that any credit left at the end of a student's stay won't be wasted. Instead the student can stay in touch with new friends once they have returned back to their home country.
Supplied by GSM International and powered by IDT Global, one of the world's leading telecom companies, the English UK phonecard is designed to be easy to use and reliable. IDT has offices in 20 countries and offers multi-lingual customer assistance 24/7.
* Buy Back Guarantee: Should you wish to return any unsold cards you have 3 months from the date of purchase to do so for a full refund, no questions asked!
