What do Primus charge to call NGN numbers.

Options
I can find no proper rates on the Primus Saver site for calls to NGN .Does anybody know their rates to 0845/0870/0844/0871 ?

    I emailed them before joining up. I was told this.

    Non Geographical rates (excl VAT)



    0845 numbers



    Weekend 0.85 pence per minute

    Off-peak 1.26 pence per minute

    Peak 3.36 pence per minute





    0870 numbers



    Weekend 1.7 pence per minute

    Off-peak 3.36 pence per minute

    Peak 6.73 pence per minute
  • So apart from calling 0845 at weekends . It would be cheaper to use BT by using the 1280 over ride .Or at peak rate use one of the cheaper 0845/0870 suppliers.BT being the cheapest at evenings and weekends any way.
  • Thanks for info so far.If anybody does have their 0844/0871 prices i would be grateful for them.

    Certainly 18185's 4p/minute for 0870 calls on weekdays beats Primus and BT.
    Time has moved on (much quicker than it used to - or so it seems at my age) and my previous advice on residential telephony has been or is now gradually being overtaken by changes in the retail market. Hence, I have now deleted links to my previous 'pearls of wisdom'. I sincerely hope they helped save some of you money.

    From Primus;

    Thank you for your e-mail. Our web site will soon have all these rates included on it. I have included them below as requested.



    0800 numbers are still free via our service. Premium rate numbers start with 09.... If you wish to still dial these type of numbers please dial 1280 prior to the number and BT will charge you for these calls.



    0844 rates are the same as 0845 rates.
