Landline To Mobile 1p a minute. CleverRates (merged)

Matrix_Keeper

Disappointed Calls from landline to mobile are now my most expensive phone expense, so was really keen for this to work.

Tried it out a dozen times, when calling my mobile I get the fax tone as reported earlier in this thread and when calling my wife's phone get nothing but silence.

Both phones T-Mobile.

And in both cases have added the international code (0044) minus the 0 of the mobile number.

Any other services out there?

Anyone know how to program my orchid dailler to automaticaly convert the mobile number I dial into the international format required?

We are with Just dial and 1899 for our telephone.
Will we be charged 1p a minute by Just dial?

Matrix_Keeper i have used it to call both Orange and O2 Mobiles from BT Landline today worked ok, did you put * at end of number.eg 00447891011xx*
1p rate ends in New Year anyway!

Have you tried https://www.18185.co.uk 5p a minute weekdays, 2p weekends 4p connection.

Thistleboon yes you can use it.Not sure what JDS charge to call 0844.So put call through BT by using 1280 override service.

Only discovered this today and it worked first time for me when I phoned an O2 mobile.

Yes, I've just successfully called a T-Mobile number from an NTL landline. Many thanks for the tip!

I tried a call through Just Dial and it came up as 4p charge for a 56 second call... not sure how much it would be for a longer call....

Cheers, didn't realise there was an override service for BT....

Like Matrix_Keeper, I just got silence after dialling a mobile (Orange), so am disappointed as that has cost me 5p for a call that didn't go through. And before anyone asks, I followed the instructions and dialled the full international number with a * at the end.

That could be the problem - it's a # not a * at the end.
