BT is to launch a new residential opt-in discount package from the 22nd May 2007 called BT International Freedom.
It will provide calls to fixed lines in 36 destinations at zero pence per minute for the first hour of each call (other conditions apply), plus further special pence per minute rates for a number of other international destinations for a monthly fee of £5 (inc VAT).
'1st hour free' countries are:
Australia, Austria, Bahamas, Belgium, Canada, China, Croatia, Cyprus (excl the north of Cyprus), Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Gibraltar, Greece, Hong Kong, Hungary, Republic of Ireland, Italy(Includes Vatican City and San Marino), Japan, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Netherlands, New Zealand(inc Chatham Islands), Norway, Poland, Portugal (includes calls to Madeira and the Azores), Singapore, Slovenia, Spain (inc. Balearic Islands, ex. Canary Is.), Sweden, Switzerland (Excludes Liechtenstein), USA.
Discounted calls are to: Bangladesh, India, Jamaica, Pakistan, South Africa, Trinidad & Tobago, Zambia
Looking at the T&C, I see that 'BT may withdraw the BT International Freedom option (with 30 days notice, or immediately where we feel your use is extremely excessive) if you exceed 600 minutes per month. If the BT International Freedom option is terminated by BT because of excessive use by you, you may not return to this product for a period of 12 months.'

At least two CPS suppliers include calls to many of these Intl Destnations in their 24/7 call packages. EG Euphony and Sky Talk . These packages cost £5 a month or less, but they also include inclusive calls to Uk Geographical Numbers,plus they have no excessive use restriction.0
