Martin recommends ditching 18866 and changing to 1899. This may not work for all. I phone primarily landlines in UK and Australia. 1899 provide same cost for Uk landline calls and 1p per minute dearer for Australia calls. No I shall stick to 18866 unless someone can tell me I have it all wrong.

I wouldn't use either 18866 or 1899 for calls to Australia - I'd use 18185 (1p/minute) or one of the 1p/minute dial-through providers shown on the MSE International CallChecker.Their - possessive pronoun (owned by them e.g. "They locked their car").
They're - colloquial/abbreviated version of 'They are'
There - noun (location other than here e.g. "You can buy groceries there") OR adverb (in or at that place e.g. "They have lived there for years") OR adverb (to or towards that place e.g. "Go there at noon") OR adverb (in that matter e.g. " I agree with you there").0 -
Better still use https://www.topupnow.co.uk Connection is 5p but speak as long as you like to Oz at no charge for the call.PF.0

My wife noticed very poor quality on calls to Canada using 1899 over the past few days. She didn't try 18866 though (partly because they're more expensive for Canada and also because we didn't expect the call quality to be any different between 1899 and 18866 or to use different carriers ).0
