    I don't think that there are any low cost alternatves to 0871 at the moment. BT have several tariff bands for 0871, depending on the digits following the 0871 prefix.

    There are several different charging bands in the 08717 group - see HERE (page 20).

    To get the price you'll then have to scroll down further (page 35 or so).
    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.
