So 18185 is still the cheapest OVERALL Supplier. These increases make some of the inclusive call packages that are available more interesting,eg Euphony/ Sky particularly to medium/heavy users of the phone at peak times,plus they get some intl calls thrown in.

My love affair with this cheap call outfit is eroding fast. The increases over the last couple of years,coupled with their move to minute billing,and the poor line quality at times ,plus lack of customer service makes me think its time to move on.Having said that they have saved me a fair few quid.

Me too, I have referred on 11 people, used Primus and the orchid dialler. Jeez how does it look 4me peeps:eek:

Darnit! Going to have to look at something else cheap now.

It might be time for me to move to Eclipse call package for £5.99 per month or to Orange Racoon 35 which give unlimited landland calls fair practice policy up to 3000 mins + free broadband and for an extra £5 you get free international calls via broadband
