I was under the impression that it was 'normal' in the states on pay as you go tariffs to pay to receive as well as make calls. is this not correct.

It is (not sure why the Americans have put up with it for so long - it also applies to most of their contract ones) that's why they give ridiculous amounts of minutes.
I'' be testing the system in a couple of weeks so will let you know how we get on.
