Re: Maintaining a UK mobile number while in the US long term
The O2 website says you need to use the number every 6 months to keep it, so you might want to use it soonest ...
"If you don't carry out a chargeable activity at least once in any six month period your mobile number will be disconnected and you'll lose any credit on your account. If you want to be reconnected you'll be given a new mobile number."

9 GBP / mo is a lot if you don't travel there and only receive 1 or 2 texts per year! Skype is not a solution for SMS messages.

I have had a few issues with some SMS messages on Skype since the new version came out, but with 02 phone I have never had issues anywhere in world, and with the bolt-ons never had much issue with charges outside of UK.
